Particle Physics

Both positron and electron are of equal mass i.e about 9.1*10^-31 kg .

The speed of light is about 3*10^8 m/s, and as per Einstein's theory E=m*c*c .

Total mass = 2*9.1*10^-31 and c*c = (3*10^8)^2 = 9*10^16.

So, energy released = 2*9.1*10^-31*9*10^16 = about 1.637*10^-13 joules, or about 1.02 MeV.

The element with that electron configuration is Iron.

Protons are electrically positive charged, electrons are electrically negative charged, neutrons are electrically neutral. The number of electrons and protons is equal in a neutral atom.

Protons and neutrons are in the atomic nucleus, electrons on electron shells, forming electron clouds.

A proton consists of two up quarks and one down quark bound together by the strong nuclear force. These quarks are elementary particles that are the building blocks of protons and other hadrons.

The fourth orbital, which is the 4d orbital, can hold up to 10 electrons. This orbital has a higher energy level than the 3d orbital and can accommodate more electrons. Each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons per subshell (s, p, d, f).

The formula for a neutron is n. Neutrons are subatomic particles with no electrical charge and a mass slightly greater than that of a proton. They are found in the nucleus of an atom.

In the electron configuration of tin (Sn), the 3d electrons are not present. Tin has a configuration of [Kr] 5s2 4d10 5p2, which means it has 2 electrons in the 5s orbital, 10 electrons in the 4d orbital, and 2 electrons in the 5p orbital.

the you and the stupid! oh wait that is the same thing!

The electron arrangement of potassium is 2-8-8-1, following the electron configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1. This means potassium has 19 electrons arranged in four energy levels.

Mass of neutron: 1,6749 x 10-27 kg

Mass of electron: 0,00091x10-27 kg

Proton-proton attraction refers to the electrostatic force of attraction that exists between two positively charged protons. This force is one of the fundamental forces of nature that holds the nucleus of an atom together. It is responsible for overcoming the repulsive forces that exist between protons due to their like charges.

The electron domain geometry of XeF2 is linear. This is because the central atom Xe has two bonded atoms (F) and no lone pairs of electrons, resulting in a linear molecular geometry.

Yes. We can (and do) smash protons. We can slam them into each other or we can slam protons into antiprotons. Big accelerators do this kind of work. The protons will break up, but the things that we get vary as the type of collisions (and the energies) involved in the smashing project. A proton is composed of two up quarks and a down quark, and a neutron is composed of two down quarks and an up quark. The neutron is unstable outside of a nucleus. It has a half-life of a bit under 886 seconds. That's about 14.8 minutes, roughly. When a free neutron decays, it decays into a proton, an electron and an electron antineutrino.

The four fundamental forces in physics (gravitational, electromagnetic, strong nuclear, weak nuclear) govern interactions between objects at various scales. These forces determine motion by influencing how objects accelerate, interact, and change positions relative to one another. Understanding how these forces operate is crucial for accurately predicting the behavior of objects in motion and explaining the forces that cause these movements.

It takes 6.25E18 electrons to produce 1 coulomb of charge.

Protons are the subatomic particles that give an atom its identity. The number of protons in the nucleus determines the element's atomic number, which in turn defines the specific type of atom.

The W boson is the carrier of the weak force (weak interaction), and the weak force is the "boss" of beta decay. The weak interaction mediates the changes that take place in an atomic nucleus just prior to the emission of a beta particle. Let's look at that. In beta decay, one of two things happens. One is that an up quark in a proton becomes a down quark, and the proton becomes a neutron. The weak interaction mediates this, and a W+ boson appears, then becomes a positron and a neutrino. In the other case, a down quark in a neutron becomes an up quark, and the neutron becomes a proton. The weak interaction mediates this, too, and a W- boson appears, and then becomes an electron and an antineutrino. You can use the links below to learn more.

When electrons are excited, they absorb energy and move to higher energy levels. This can happen through various processes like heat, light, or electrical energy. The excited state is temporary, and electrons will eventually return to their original energy levels, releasing the absorbed energy in the form of light or heat.

The Electromagnetic force is the only microscopic force causing friction, but the explanation of that force is not simply based on electrostatics or classical electromagnetic theory.

The forces involved with friction are ultimately the forces between atoms at the interface between two materials.

Atoms may attract, repel and become chemically bonded and those processes must be described using quantum theory.

In some cases, atoms or molecules at the interface are charges or have dipoles or other complex charge distributions which interact with other charges or charge distributions through simple laws of electrostatics.

But, neutral atoms interact even when the isolated atoms have no charge and a simple spherical charge distribution. The interaction between neutral atoms and molecules which are far apart (further apart than a few angstroms) are termed "van der Walls forces" and such forces are weakly attractive. When atoms or molecules are closer, then they may develop a chemical bond. If they do not develop a chemical bond that moving even closer results in a rapidly increasing repulsion when the electron clouds of two atoms begin to overlap. This is a result of an increase in the kinetic energy of electrons and also includes some coulomb (electrostatic) effects.

The forces between atoms at close range (the repulsive forces and the van der Waals forces) are not simply electrostatic in origin. The full explanation resides in the quantum mechanical laws governing the electronic structure of the atoms and molecules.

If you are talking about the valance electrons any elements in group 5 on the periodic table will have 5 valance electrons.

Cadmium (Cd) has 48 electrons, and its electron configuration is [Kr] 4d10 5s2. This means that the core electrons in cadmium are those in the inner shells, which are the 36 electrons from the noble gas krypton (Kr). Therefore, cadmium has 36 core electrons.

It would be difficult to inject the nucleus of uranium with a proton because the positive charge of the proton would repel the positively charged uranium nucleus, which is also positively charged. This repulsion creates a barrier that needs to be overcome, requiring a high amount of energy for a successful injection.
