Characteristics of Electrons, Protons and Neutrons
Characteristics of Electrons, Protons and Neutrons - Particle Electron Proton Neutron Symbol e p n Nature Negatively charged Positively charged Neutral Relative charge -1 +1 0 Absolute charge 1.6 x 10 -19 C 1.6 x 10 -19 C 0 Relative mass 1/1840 amu ..
Neutron
A neutron is a particle having a mass equal to 1.67 x 10 - 2 4 g (hydrogen atom) and no electrical charg..
Proton
The proton has a mass equal to that of hydrogen atom, which is equal to 1.67 x 10 - 2 4 g or 1.0073 amu while it has an unit positive charge of +1.602 x 10 -19 ..
Discovery of Neutrons
Although Rutherford's model was enormously successful at explaining the scattering of alpha particles, there was a problem when the experimental data were used to calculate the mass of the nucleus. From the results of the scattering experiments, it was possible to calculate the char..
Mass of a proton
A proton can be thought of as a hydrogen atom that has lost its electron. Since the mass of an electron is small, the mass of a proton is equal to the mass of a hydrogen atom. As the mass of hydrogen atom is for all practical purposes 1 a..
Nuclear Stability and Neutron/Proton Ratio
It has been found that the stability of nucleus depends upon its neutron to proton (n/p) ratio. A plot of N (the neutron number) against Z (atomic number or number of protons) show that for stable nuclides upto Z = 20, N = 20 i.e., the relationship ca..

A proton is actually a hydrogen atom, which has lost its electron. Since the mass of an electron is small, the mass of a proton is equal to the mass of a hydrogen atom. As the mass of hydrogen atom is 1 a.m.u., the relative mass..
Atomic mass, mass number or nucleon number
The total number of protons and neutrons present in one atom of an element is known as its mass number. Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons It can also be said that: Mass number = Atomic number + number of ..

Binding Energy and Mass Defect - An atomic nucleus is a stable structure. The nucleus is bound by very strong short range forces called nuclear forces. Certain amount of work has to be done to separate the nucleons to such a distance that there is no interaction. This work done therefore ..

She should be the head of Tutor Vista. She knows how to treat her students. Her teaching style is spectacular.
Very fast and clear. Made sure I understood the concepts instead of giving the answers to the problem.
This Tutor Vista is GREAT! loved this session, it helped me heaps.
Tutor Vista tutor helped me understand and gave me some practices and showed me how to do them.
