Particle Physics

In the cristae of the organelle called the mitochondria.

neutron has no electric charge.electron is negative whereas proton is positively charge.

No two subatomic particles have the exact same mass. The proton and the neutron, however, come close. Neutrons are heavier than protons by only 2.3 X 10-30 kg. (Neutron: 1.674927351 x 10-27, Proton: 1.672621777 x 10-27)

The three subatomic particles found in an atom are the Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons. But the subatomic particles found in the nucleus of an atom are the Protons, and Neutrons. The Electrons surround the nucleus and take up most of the volume.

The electromagnetic force between the electrons in the person's atoms and the electrons in the wall's atoms is greater than the force of a person pushing against it. The atoms in the wall are connected via their electrons with a certain amount of force; if the force applied to the wall exceeds this threshold, then the object acting on the wall will go through it.

No. A neutron is one of several types of hadron.

A photon is a unit of light and has a mass of 0 where is a Neutrino has a small but nonzero mass. Neutrino's are similar to electrons in most regards, except neutrino's have no charge. Where photon's travel at the speed of light neutrino's come close but do not.

The electron configuration of magnesium is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2. Mg+ has one less electron (electrons have negative charge, so a positive charge is a lack of electrons) so you remove one from the outermost orbital: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1, or simply [Ne] 3s1.

When you say "touch," you are most likely seeing solid balls with a specific diameter, coming closer together than this diameter. Much like ball bearing stacked together.

Problem is, when analyzing protons in a nucleus, concepts like "diameter" and "distance between protons" become meaningless concepts. We can NOT say with any meaning what the "diameter" of a proton is -- we can only discuss the probability that one particle, at a specific distance from a proton, will interact with that proton. Worse, we also can NOT discuss with any meaning "where" a proton is located within a nucleus. At these distances, to say, "Proton 1 is here, and proton 2 is a distance of .5 fermis away," is a nonsensical statement. When we get within a nucleus, ordinary concepts of location and distance disappear.

I think it is because they do not carry a charge. They are neutrons therefore they are neutrons. The LHC can accelerate protons because they carry a positive charge, for example. The LHC uses magnetic fields to accelerate particles, which will have no effect on neutrally charged particles.

The neutron was discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

An atom with more electrons than protons has a Negative charge. This makes it not a atom but an Ion. A Negatively charged Ion is called a Anion (An-Ai-On) and a positive Ion is called a cation (Cat-ai-on).

CERN is an organisational headquaters of scientists, based in Switzerland, which houses a large hadron collider (the LHC). By smashing particles together at great speed, it's hoped that the LHC will be able to recreate the conditions present at the beginning of the universe (the big bang). The scientists are examining the microscopic collisions, which are created by shooting atoms around the huge tunnels of the LHC.

The photon. This refers to the "rest mass"; since the photon has energy, it also has an associated mass. But the "rest mass" or "invariant mass" is zero.

All we can say is that it is the nature of electrons to carry a negative charge, and for protons to carry a positive charge. The intrinsic cause of these charges is still not yet understood, and awaits the further development of sub-atomic physics models.

In the atomic model, the electrons exist in discrete orbitals or energy levels around the outside of the nucleus, sometimes referred to as shells, concentric to the nucleus. Rather than identifying a specific location for an electron in an atom at any given moment, they are often represented with a probability distribution resembling a cloud, indicating the likelihood they will be in a collection of given loci whose shape is determined by the orbital type: some are spherical, others are lobed or doughnut-shaped.

There is only one element with 26 protons and that's iron (Fe) or any isotope of iron

Protons are positively charged particles found inside the nucleus of an atom. The number of protons in each atom is its atomic number. The name proton was given to the hydrogen nucleus by Ernest Rutherford in 1920.

Proton is a positive particle and electron is a negative particle.

There is no evidence of a smaller particle than the quarks and electrons and other fundamental particles, but there is a theory of smaller particles called "rishons". The theory states that there are T, V, t, and v rishons. The T and t rishons are antoparticles, the T's having an electric charge of +1/3, and the t's having -1/3. The v and V are antiparticles, but they are both neutral. (Again, this is only theory.)

SIMILARITIES:

1. They both have DNA as their genetic material.

2. They are both membrane bound.

3. They both have ribosomes .

4. They have similar basic metabolism .

5. They are both amazingly diverse in forms.

DIFFERENCES:

1. eukaryotes have a nucleus, while prokaryotes do not

2. eukaryotes have membrane-bound organelles, while prokaryotes do not. The organelles of eukaryotes allow them to exhibit much higher levels of intracellular division of labor than is possible in prokaryotic cells.

3. Eukaryotic cells are, on average, ten times the size of prokaryotic cells.

4. The DNA of eukaryotes is much more complex and therefore much more extnsive than the DNA of prokaryotes.

5. Prokaryotes have a cell wall composed of peptidoglycan, a single large polymer of amino acids and sugar . Many types of eukaryotic cells also have cell walls, but none made of peptidoglycan.

6. The DNA of prokaryotes floats freely around the cell; the DNA of eukaryotes is held within its nucleus and associated with histones (proteins)

7. Eukaryotes undergo mitosis; prokaryotes divide by binary fission (simple cell division)

A heated metal in a vacuum with an electrical charge can emit electrons. The filament is the part of the tube that gets hot. Some tubes use electrons emitted from the filament. Others use the filament to heat a metal cathode, causing it to emit electrons. The electrons flow to a positively charged "plate" electrode through the vacuum.
