Question
Chapter 25, Problem 70A
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Similarities and differences between positrons and electrons are to be described.
Concept introduction:
The process of radioactive decay is how an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy through radiation. A substance that has unstable nuclei is regarded as radioactive.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 70A
A positron has the same magnetic moment as an electron, but it is a much heavier and slower particle.
Explanation of Solution
Similarities
| Positron | Electron |
| Positron are the beta | Electrons are the beta |
| It has a spin of 1/2 | It has a spin of 1/2 |
| It is a form of radioactive decay. | Electron is a form of radioactive decay. |
| Positrons do not change the | Electron do not change the atomic number or mass number of an atom. |
Difference
| Positron | Electron |
| Positron is heavier. | Electron is lighter. |
| Positron is positively charged. | Electron is negatively charged. |
| Positron is an antielectron or the antimatter counterpart of the electron. | Electron is an elementary particle of an atom. |
