What happens when U-235 emits a beta particle?
beta decay results from the transformation of a neutron in the nucleus to a proton (+ charge) and an electron (beta particle). The proton remains in the nucleus increasing the atomic number by one (mass number remains the same) while the electron is emitted as a beta particle. So, U-235 of atomic number 92 changes to Neptunium with atomic number 93. However, to my knowledge, U-235 decays by gamma not beta. U-236 decays by beta to Neptunium-236.
What is the radioactive decay of an atom resulting in the decrease in the atomic number with no charge in the atomic mass called?
It is called beta decay. there are two types: 1) posive beta decay in which atomic number decreases. 2) negative beta decay in which atomic number increases.
When an unstable nucleus produces an beta particle by how many units does the atomic number of the nucleus change?
The atomic number decreases by one for each beta particle
The transformation of 92U238 into 82Pb206 the number of alph and beta particles is what?
alpha particles=8 and beta particles=6
How is the atomic number of a nucleus change is it by alpha decay or beta decay or gamma decay?
Alpha decay decreases the atomic number by two. Beta- decay increases the atomic number by one. Beta+ decay decreases the atomic number by one. Gamma decay does not change the atomic number. However, gamma decay is often incidental to a precipitating alpha or beta event that upsets the energy equilibrium in the nucleus, so the two are not unrelated.
What happens to the atomic number of an element if it emits 1 alpha particle and 3 beta particles?
It depends on whether the beta decay is beta- or beta+. The alpha emission reduces the atomic number by 2. Beta- increases the atomic number by 1 while beta+ decreases the atomic number by 1. You do the math.
What happens to the atomic number when the nucleus releases a beta particle?
When the nucleus releases a beta minus particle the atomic number increase with 1.When the nucleus releases a beta plus particle the atomic number decrease with 1.
How does the atomic number of a nucleus change when beta decay occurs?
The atomic number increases by one unit when a beta decay occurs.
What is the average surface temperature of Star Beta rounded to the nearest whole number?
Beta is not a specific star. There is a beta star in every constellation.
Aqworlds wiki hell quest number load shop 2010 beta shop?
The beta shop number is 4 or 5 try it
What happens to the total number of nucleons during beta decay?
Beta- decay involves changing a neutron into a proton, so, beta- decay would increase the number of protons by 1.

234Th---- beta minus------234Pa
