Question 1
Video #1, Question #1
Match the particle to its' description:
Column A
1. 4/2 he
:
2.0/-1 e
:
3. y
:
4.
Is the same as a Helium atom:
5.
Is an electron:
6.
Is pure energy
Column B
a.Beta particle
b.Gamma particle
c.Alpha particle
1. 4/2 he - c. Alpha particle
2. 0/-1 e - a. Beta particle
3. y - b. Gamma particle
To match the particles to their descriptions:
1. 4/2 he - c. Alpha particle
2. 0/-1 e - a. Beta particle
3. y - b. Gamma particle
4. Is the same as a Helium atom - c. Alpha particle
5. Is an electron - a. Beta particle
6. Is pure energy - b. Gamma particle
To match the particles to their descriptions in question 1, we need to understand the characteristics of each particle.
Column A:
1. The particle with a charge of 4/2 is 4/2 he (Helium).
2. The particle with a charge of 0/-1 is 0/-1 e (electron).
3. The particle denoted as "y" needs further clarification as it is not a commonly used term.
Column B:
a. A beta particle is a fast-moving electron or positron emitted during radioactive decay. It has a charge of -1.
b. A gamma particle refers to gamma radiation, which is a very high-energy electromagnetic radiation. It does not have a charge.
c. An alpha particle is a helium nucleus consisting of two protons and two neutrons. It has a charge of +2.
Based on these descriptions, we can now match the particles to their descriptions:
1. 4/2 he (Helium) - Is the same as a Helium atom.
2. 0/-1 e (electron) - Is an electron.
3. "y" - This term needs further clarification.
4. 4/2 he (Helium) - Is the same as a Helium atom.
5. 0/-1 e (electron) - Is an electron.
6. "y" - This term needs further clarification.
Without a clear description for the "y" particle, we cannot determine its corresponding description in Column B.
