b. A beta particle contains neutrons.
c. A beta particle is less massive than a gamma ray.
d. A beta particle is a high-energy electron.

a. A beta particle has a negative charge. d. A beta particle is a high-energy electron.

Explanation:

Identify the correct descriptions of beta particles.

a. A beta particle has a negative charge. YES. A beta particle is originated in the following nuclear reaction: ¹₀n ⇒ ¹₁H + ⁰₋₁e (beta particle.)

b. A beta particle contains neutrons. NO. It is a electron originated in the nucleus.

c. A beta particle is less massive than a gamma ray. NO. Gamma rays don't have mass while a beta particle has a mass which is half of one thousandth of the mass of a proton.

d. A beta particle is a high-energy electron. YES. Beta particles are nuclear originated hig-energy electrons.

with this one i know the answer in craters one reason i looked it up and i learned about it there is my evidence
