Question

A deuterium nucleus consists of one proton and one neutron. The quark composition of a deuterium nucleus is.

Answer 1

A deuterium nucleus consists of one proton and one neutron. The quark composition of a deuterium nucleus is

A- 2 up quarks and one down quark

B- 2 up quarks and 4 down quarks

C- 3 up quarks and 3 down quarks

D -4 up quarks and 2 down quarks

The quark composition of a deuterium nucleus is  3 up quarks and 3 down quarks. Thus, option "C" is correct.

What is the composition of quark?

The quark composition of a deuterium nucleus is 3 up quarks and 3 down quarks. The overall charge of the deuterium nucleus is +1. Comparing the given overall charge to the chart of the Particles of the Standard  Model, the overall charge can be determined from the combinations of the choices.

Thus, option "C" is correct.

Answer 2

The quark composition of a deuterium nucleus is 3 up quarks and 3 down quarks.

What are quarks?

Quarks are the most fundamental particles that make up the atomic nucleus. All solid matter that we know is made of three particles, which are the up and down quarks, 'u' and 'd', and the electron.

In this case we have that the composition of the quark in the nucleus will be 3 up quarks and 3 down quarks.
