It depends on which isotope of bismuth we are talking about. Most isotopes less than bismuth-209 that decay by beta do so via beta+, and they decay to lead, while most isotopes greater than bismuth-209 that decay by beta do so via beta-, and they decay to polonium.

There are some isotopes that decay by other mechanisms, such as alpha, but the question asked only about beta.

What would be the product of the beta decay of bismuth?

The beta decay product of francium-223 is radium-223.


What is the name of the product nuclide when bismuth-214 undergoes beta decay?

Bismuth-214 produces Polonium-214 by beta- decay. It also produces Thallium-210 by alpha decay, though at a much smaller percentage.


What does bismuth 210 become when it undergoes alpha decay?

bismuth 210 decays by beta decay to polonium 210 that decays by alpha decay to lead 206


What is the parent radioisotope if a beta decay produces polonium-214?

Bismuth-214


Is raduim decays to bismuth how many alpha beta particles are emitted?

Atomic number of radium is 88 and that of bismuth is 83. So atomic number is to be reduced by 5. But as alpha is emitted atomic number reduces by 2. So a beta decay is needed which would increase the atomic number by 1. So 3 alpha decay and one beta decay would make radium into bismuth


What type of radiation is emitted when polonium-212 forms?

Polonium-212 is formed by beta decay of bismuth-212.
