Proton number
[1]
6 a
An -particle contains two protons and two
neutrons.[1]
A -particle is a fast-moving electron.
[1]
An -particle is much heavier than a
-particle (about 7400 or 8000 times larger).
[1]
An -particle is positively charged (+2e),
whereas a -particle is negatively charged
(e).[1]
b Isotopes have the same number of protons in
the nucleus or the same proton number. [1]
Isotopes have different numbers of neutrons
in the nucleus or different nucleon numbers.

b Because the particles are charged, when they
collide with or pass close to atoms,
[1] 11
they knock electrons from the atoms, leaving
behind charged atoms or ions.

a A neutron is made up of other particles but a
quark is thought not to.
[1]
b i proton charge +1(e), made up of two up
quarks and one down quark
[1]
neutron charge 0, made up of two down
quarks and one up quark
[1]
ii The proton is positive, so either one or
both up and down quarks are positive. [1]
The neutron is neutral, so if one quark is
positive, the other is negative.

c strong interaction or strong nuclear force [1]

Most of the mass is concentrated in a small
space.[1]
This space / nucleus is positive and
surrounded by negative charged electrons.[1]
b Any three from:
Most -particles pass undeviated through the
gold, showing that most of an atom is empty
space[1]
Some -particles are deflected though large
angles / greater than 90, showing that
Part of the atom is much heavier than an
-particle (and positive)
[1]
Electrons (negative) were known to exist, so
other particles in the nucleus must have been
positive and heavier
