Beta particlesâ A beta particle is emitted during the radioactive decay of some unstable atoms. Beta particles can have either a negative charge or a positive charge and they have the same very small mass (1/2000 the mass of a neutron) regardless of charge.
Electrons are negatively charged particles, and in a neutral atom, the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons. They are much smaller than protons but have the same strength charge. Because the charge of electrons is opposite in sign than protons, the two types of particles attract each other, and this force, known as the Coulomb force, holds the atom together. Electrons travel around the nucleus in orbitals, but it is impossible to know both the speed and location of an electron at the same time.
