Do subatomic particles actually exist?

No. Subatomic particles are not like anything you experience in the classical world. In particular, they are not miniature cannonballs or planets or whatever. In a quantum particle theory, elementary particles are point-like.

Which statement about subatomic particles is not true?

The statement that is not true about subatomic particle is that all electrons and atom contain the same amount of energy.

Do subatomic particles pop in and out of existence?

Empty space experiences similar activity, with subatomic particles winking in and out of existence. These ephemeral subatomic particles are real and have a measurable impact on our universe.

Can things pop into existence?

In quantum terms, the strong force is carried by a field of virtual particles called gluons, randomly popping into existence and disappearing again. The energy of these vacuum fluctuations has to be included in the total mass of the proton and neutron.

What is false about subatomic particles?

Protons have about the same mass as neutrons. Protons and neutrons have charges of the same magnitude, but opposite sign. This is also false because neutrons have no charge, so it’s impossible for protons and neutrons to have the same charge.

What subatomic particles are true?

Subatomic particles include electrons, the negatively charged, almost massless particles that nevertheless account for most of the size of the atom, and they include the heavier building blocks of the small but very dense nucleus of the atom, the positively charged protons and the electrically neutral neutrons.

Is it possible to be in 2 places at once?

And waves occupy multiple places in space at once. So any chunk of matter can also occupy two places at once. Physicists call this phenomenon “quantum superposition,” and for decades, they have demonstrated it using small particles.

Are gluons real?

Yes. Gluons were first conclusively proven to exist in 1979, though the theory of strong interactions (known as QCD) had predicted their existence earlier. Gluons were detected by the jets of hadronic particles they produce in a particle detector soon after they are first created.

Do we really observe sub-atomic particles?

The answer to the OP is yes, we really do observe sub-atomic particles. That realization though is a trivial part of a beautiful thing. The A2a: Every time I hit this key, I observe with my finger, and every time I sit on this chair I observer with my butt.

Are all subatomic particles in the universe the same?

In reality, all subatomic particles are the same thing. The universe is fractal. It is really just different sizes and stages of the same thing The short answer is we do not know. We have theories but are they right?

Do particles exist in real life?

So in that sense, particles exist as much as mass and velocity do. Where math and physics and the real world collide is in the experiment. Does the math and the physical model give you results that align, more or less, with observations?

Is it possible for a particle to be a wave-particle?

In QFT, these particles don’t really exist as particles, but as bits of energy in fields. This also accounts for wave-particle duality as you describe, as the ‘wave’ of a ‘particle’ is just an oscillation in the field. So yes, according to Quantum Field theory, you are completely correct.
