Particle Physics

Relatively recent experimental results have confirmed what philosophers throughout history had theorized all along; that all matter is made up of elementary particles. Those curious about this cutting-edge field of physics known as particle physics should post their questions here, including those about fundamental particles, fundamental forces, Grand Unified Theories, and the extraordinary devices that have been or need to be engineered to research them.

How many protons and neutrons does cesium 134 have?

Oh, dude, cesium-134 has 55 protons and around 79 neutrons. It's like the cool kid at the periodic table party, just hanging out with its atomic number of 55 and atomic mass of around 134. So, yeah, it's got its protons and neutrons chillin' like, "What's up, we're cesium-134."

How many neutrons in ununtrium?

Oh, dude, ununtrium? That's like one of those fancy shmancy elements that sounds like it's straight out of a sci-fi movie. Anyway, ununtrium is element 113 on the periodic table, and it typically has around 173 neutrons. But hey, who's counting, right?

When an element has a negative charge it will contain additional subatomic particles Which additional subatomic particle will it contain?

When an element has a negative charge, it means it has gained additional electrons, which are the subatomic particles responsible for the negative charge. Electrons are negatively charged particles that orbit the nucleus of an atom, which consists of positively charged protons and neutral neutrons. Thus, the presence of extra electrons is what gives the atom its negative charge.

How many electrons equal the mass of one neutron?

The mass of a neutron is approximately the mass of a proton...so

= 1.66 X 10 -27 kg

-------------------------------approximate neutron mass

Electron mass.

= 9.109 X 10 -31 kg

-----------------------------------so,

1.66 X 10 -27 kg/9.109 X 10 -31 kg

= about 1822 electrons to equal mass of neutron

================================

What are the sizes of protons neutrons and electrons?

Proton and neutron has a size of 10-13 cm (approx. 1,5-2 fm).

The diameter of the electron may be cca. 10-17 m but this is only a calculated value and is not very sure.

How many neutrons does phosphorus -33 have?

18.

Phosphorus has an atomic number of 15, therefore it has 15 protons. Phosphorus-33 has a total of 33 protons and neutron and therefore has 18 neutrons.

Phosphorus-33 is a synthetic unstable isotope of P.

What subatomic particles make up an atom and where they are located?

There are three subatomic particles:

1. Proton - found in the nucleus which is at the centre of the atom

2. Neutron - found in the nucleus which is at the centre of the atom

3. Electron - found in the shells which surround the nucleus

How many electrons can nitrogen lend or borrow?

Phosphorous has 5 electrons in its valence shell.So, it needs to borrow 3 electrons to attain an octet of electrons.

However, this rarely happens as phosphorous forms bonds by covalent bonding in general.

What are electrons that get borrowed or stolen called?

Outer electrons are the electrons that are borrowed or stolen in a reaction. Because a non-metal has a negative oxidation number, it will borrow electrons from a metal to complete its outer shell. Metals have positive oxidation numbers and tend to lose electrons in reactions.

Do protons and electrons cancel each other out?

well, neutrons are neutral which means it does not have a charge so if u only have electrons and neutrons, it would be negative, however if you had equal protons and electrons, it would be neutral.

What species contain 16 neutrons?

An element with 16 neutrons could be oxygen-16, which is a stable isotope of oxygen.

Is the Higgs-Boson the smallest particle?

  1. On 4 July 2012, the ATLAS and CMS experiments at CERN's Large Hadron Collider announced they had each observed a new particle in the mass region around 126 GeV. This particle is consistent with the Higgs boson predicted by the Standard Model.
  2. Well this is what the LHC is telling us. However it could be wrong, for example maybe it wasn't the Higgs, maybe it was a new particle. This all just mostly based on calculations by maths. The mass was predicted by maths. Then the LHC rounded it up and ended the search for the great God Particle.

What does electron orbital describe?

An electron orbital describes the probable location of an electron within an atom. It represents the three-dimensional region where an electron is most likely to be found, based on the electron's energy level, shape, and orientation within the atom. Each orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons with opposite spins.

What subatomic particles compose the mass of an atom?

All subatomic particles have mass, bar the photon and the gluon. The masses of some of the most well-known are as follows:

Electron: 0.511 MeV/c^2

Proton: 938.272 MeV/c^2

Neutron: 939.565 MeV/c^2

Electron Neutrino: ~2.2 MeV/c^2

N.B: All masses have been expressed using Einstein's mass-energy equivalence (E=m.c^2); the mass is thus expressed in terms of energy/c^2 as the masses (in kg) would be extremely small.

How many electrons does mercury consists in outer orbital?

Mercury's atomic number is 80. Thus, it has 80 protons and 80 electrons to be neutral. Its configuration is therefore 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d10 5p6 6s2 4f14 5d10. As you can see, 6 of its s orbitals are filled.

What is the collective name of neutron ang protons?

Neutron and Proton both travel in a circle named Neucleus (the core of the atom)

What determines the spin of a subatomic particle?

The spin of a subatomic particle is an intrinsic property that is not caused by the particle physically spinning on its axis. It is a fundamental characteristic of the particle that has a quantized value based on its quantum state. Spin is a crucial aspect of particle physics and plays a role in determining the particle's behavior in various interactions.

How break nucleus from proton?

Well, the question as asked does not actually make physical sense. No disrespect intended. You see, the 'proton' is itself regarded as the nucleus in the pure hydrogen atom (one + charge particle, the 'proton', and one - charge particle, the electron). As such, the 'proton' IS the nucleus.

In heavier elements the 'proton' is part of the nucleus when combined with a neutron.

Good luck in your search for knowledge. But better hard work than luck.

How many neutrons are in the isotope in 1-h-1?

There is 0 neutron in a Hydrogen-1 isotope. Hydrogen-1 has an atomic number of 1, which means it has 1 proton and no neutrons.

Can the higgs boson exist in a nebula?

No, the Higgs boson is a fundamental particle that exists within the framework of the standard model of particle physics. It is not a physical object that can exist in astronomical structures like nebulae.

Where are the nucleus and electron cloud found in a atomic structure?

The nucleus is found at the center of the atom and the electron cloud is found orbiting the nucleus at fixed, quantified radii.

Does Sr have a high electron affinity or a low electron affinity?

Sr has a relatively low electron affinity. Electron affinity is the energy change when an atom gains an electron to form a negative ion, and for strontium, this energy change is lower compared to other elements.
