Hello :) I saw you asking for help in the math chat...
I've never learned this topic before, so I might be wrong
but from googling it, it seems that an "alpha particle" is something made up of 2 protons and 2 neutrons
so if you know how much a proton and neutron weigh, you can probably add them up :)

although I'm not sure what they mean by "identity"???
perhaps definition or the greek character that represents it?
