MCQ
After losing two electrons, an atom of Helium becomes equivalent to:
  • A
    $\alpha$ -particle
  • B
    $\beta$ -particle
  • C
    $\gamma$ -particle
  • D
    Deuterium nucleus

Answer

  1. $\alpha$ -particle

Explanation:

$^4_2$He→$^4_2$He+2+2e

$^4_2$​He+2 is alpha particle. Because it has charge equal to +2e and mass is four times the mass of one proton.
