    A beta particle is similar to an electron with essentially no mass and has a negative charge. The atomic number of a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons and the number of electrons of the atom. The atomic weight meanwhile is equal to the sum of the number of protons and number of neutrons. Hence when beta particle is emitted, the effect is E. Adding a proton of zero mass to the nucleus
