Question

Which description matches up correctly with each type of particle? Alpha - no mass and no charge; beta - mass of 4 and charge of +2; gamma - charge of -1 and mass of 0 Alpha - mass of 0 and charge of -1; beta - mass of 4 and charge of +2; gamma - no mass and no charge Alpha - mass of 4 and charge of +2; beta - no mass and charge of -1; gamma - no mass and no charge (consists of energy) Alpha - no mass and no charge; beta - no mass and no charge; gamma - no mass and no charge

Answer 1

The closest answer is
Alpha - mass of 4 and charge of +2; beta - no mass and charge of -1; gamma - no mass and no charge (consists of energy)

It’s not exactly correct because a beta particle has the (small) mass of an electron (also the positron). All other choices are way off, I’d go with this one.

Answer 2

Answer: alpha
