Ne is the atomic symbol for Neon. Neon has an atomic number of 10 - which also tells you that it has 10 protons and 10 electrons. The number of neutrons varies with the isotope. The most common isotopes are
20Ne
,21Ne
, and22Ne
- in other words, Neon with 20-10 = 10 neutrons, 21-10 = 11 neutrons, and 22 - 10 = 12 neutrons. By far the most common isotope is20Ne which represents about 90.5% of all the Neon isotopes.
A beta ray does not contain any electrons itself. Instead, it consists of high-energy electrons (beta particles) emitted during beta decay by a radioactive nucleus.
One, if it is beta-, along with the antineutrino. None, if it is beta+, along with the neutrino. (It is a positron in the latter case)

How many electrons does beta particle have?
A beta particle is typically an electron that is emitted during beta decay. This electron has a charge of -1 and a mass of approximately 1/1836 amu.
Nuclear radiation ranked from the greatest mass to the least mass is a- Xray gamma ray beta particle b- Xray beta particle gamma ray c- Alpha particle beta particle gamma ray d Beta alpha gamma?
The correct order is c) Alpha particle, beta particle, gamma ray. Alpha particles have the greatest mass, followed by beta particles, and then gamma rays which have no mass.
What particle is emitted in beta radiation?
In unstable neuclei where there are 'too many' neutrons, a neutron will convert to a proton and an electron - that electron is ejected from the nucleus and is called a beta particle. It is important that we call this electron a beta particle because it is derived by radioactive disintegration in the nucleus and not an 'orbital' electron.
Why the speed of beta rays emitted by the same element are different?
The speed of beta rays emitted by the same element can vary because the energy of the emitted beta particles is not constant. The speed of beta particles depends on the energy released during the decay process and may be influenced by factors such as the type of decay (beta-minus or beta-plus) and the initial energy state of the nucleus.
What are negatively charged particles emmited from a nucleus at a high speed called?
it is electrons
What radiations is not a part of the electromagnetic spectrum a microwave b X ray c beta ray d infrared?
Beta rays are electrons, not electromagnetic.
How many nucleons does a beta particle have?
None. A beta particle consists of a single electrons or positron.
What radiations is not a part of the electromagnetic spectrum a microwave b X-ray c beta ray d infrared?
c. beta ray
What is beta radiation made from?
Electrons or positrons.
Which is not considered a raditional ray gamma beta alpha or infrared?
Alpha and beta are not electromagnetic radiation.
What radioactive emissions are not a particle Neutron Alpha Proton Beta Gamma Ray?
Gamma Ray
How can beta plus and beta minus decay processes be understood at the level of quarks?
Both Beta plus (positrons) and beta minus (electrons) are elementary particles the same as quarks.
Does beta radiation have a helium nuleus?
A stream of helium nuclei is alpha radiation. Beta radiation is a stream of electrons.
What is the flow of a cathode ray inside a cathode ray tube?
Electrons.
What does radioactive materials and electricity have in common?
Electrons. Electricity is composed of free electrons and some radioactive decays emit electrons (beta particles)
Is it true that beta particles have a charge of2 plus?
No. Beta- particles, electrons, have a charge of -1, and beta+ particles, positrons, have a charge of +1.The alpha particle has a charge of +2.
Is beta consisted by two protons and neutrons?
No, beta radiation is composed of electrons or positrons. An alpha particle is two protons and to neutrons.
