Which type of radiation has no mass or charge?

Free radiation I suppose. But gamma radiation, is charge free. As is UV, IR, ... ..

Gamma


What do you call the type of radiation that is described as having a positive charge with an atomic mass of 4 making it a Helium atom without any electrons?

an alpha particle


Do gamma rays have a charge?

No, a gamma ray does not have a plus two charge. A gamma ray is electromagnetic energy, and has no charge at all. It is the alpha particle, a type of particulate radiation, that has a charge of plus two. Use the links below for more information.


Which type of radiation has a physical mass like alpha radiation but has no electrical charge?

4n would fit your criteria if it existed, but it doesn't. A helium atom would work to, but they aren't a form of radiation. So, unless I'm forgetting something, I don't believe there's an answer to your question.


Does Gamma ray primarily consist of pure energy and no mass?

Gamma rays are a type of electromagnetic radiation, which is a type energy. Because a gamma ray is a type of energy, it has no mass.

What type of radiation emitted by radioactive nuclei is negatively charged?

A Beta- particle is an electron, which has negative charge.Here are some other types: Alpha is a helium nucleus, which is 2 protons and 2 neutrons (having positive charge). Positron is the antiparticle to electron. Positrons have positive charge. Gamma does not have charge. Neutrons do not have charge. Neutrinos do not have charge.


What type of electrical charge does nutrons carry?

I am pretty sure you wanted to write neutrons. Neutrons does not have any electrical charge, they have only mass, so they change atom's core mass but not the charge.


What type of electromagnetic radiation is absorbed by the sample in mass spectrometry?

Mass spectrometry doesn't use electromagnetic radiation, hence why it is not called Mass spectroscopy. Instead Mass spectrometry uses high energy electrons to ionize the sample molecules, which helps determine the mass of the molecules and any fragmented ions from the parent ion.
