If you think to a beta particle the symbol is β.
The charge of an alpha particle is 2+ and the symbol is α2+.
e- is the symbol for an electron, aka a beta particle. It has a unit negative charge.
electron
The symbol is asymbol used for proton/ therefore the nuclear symbol of helium is also the symbol for designating alpha particle
a slanted P that looks like a B but is thinner and has a longer "leg"
E plus P
If you think to a beta particle the symbol is β.
The charge of an alpha particle is 2+ and the symbol is α2+.
e- is the symbol for an electron, aka a beta particle. It has a unit negative charge.
Because 'proton' starts with a 'p', and each proton carries one unit of positive charge.
electron
β0/-1e
β0/-1e

A particle that has a mass of 1 and a charge of 1 plus is a proton.
The chemical symbol of phosphorus is P.
