A particle with spin angular momentum  is called a:

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Spin angular momentum is a quantum property that particles possess, and it is a characteristic of fermions. Leptons, hadrons, and bosons can have spin angular momentum, but fermions specifically have half-integer values of spin (e.g. 1/2, 3/2, 5/2), which is consistent with the given value of 11eab079_97db_1439_a51f_3b5f09b25f42_TB6585_11. Therefore, the best choice is C) fermion. The electron is a type of fermion, but there is no information to indicate that the particle in question is specifically an electron.
