First of all, you must not distinguish elements, but rather isotopes (or nuclides) . As an example, in their chemical properties, carbon 12 and carbon 14 may be almost the same; or uranium 235 and uranium 238 may be almost the same, but in their nuclear reactions, they are completely different things.Therefore, of course it's quite possible that different isotopes of the same element decay in different ways - since they are basically unrelated to one another, for the purpose of nuclear reactions.
However, the same isotope or nuclide may, in some cases, randomly decay in different ways.
Finally, both when alpha particles are emitted, energy in form of gamma rays is usually also emitted, as a by-product so to speak.
What else can I help you with?
When was Alpha Beta Gamma created?
Alpha Beta Gamma was created in 1970.
What do you mean by radioactive element?
An element that has an unstable nucleus and therefore emits alpha, beta and/or gamma radiation.
What do you mean by radioactive?

How would you list alpha particles beta particles and gamma rays in order of increasing energy?
Alpha, beta, gamma.
Nuclear radiation ranked from the greatest mass to the least mass is a- Xray gamma ray beta particle b- Xray beta particle gamma ray c- Alpha particle beta particle gamma ray d Beta alpha gamma?
The correct order is c) Alpha particle, beta particle, gamma ray. Alpha particles have the greatest mass, followed by beta particles, and then gamma rays which have no mass.
What is the characteristics of alpha beta and gamma?
charactrestic of alpha
Write a sequence of instructions for sic to set alpha equal to product of beta and gamma?
Lda beta mul gamma sta alpha : alpha resw 1 beta resw 1 gamma resw 1
Three froms of radioactivity are?
Alpha, Beta and Gamma. Alpha and beta are both particles, but gamma is in the form of a wave. Gamma can travel the fathest but Alpha is the most dangerous when in contact with your skin
What are the particles called from a nuclear decay?
These are known as alpha, beta, and gamma rays. Alpha rays are helium-4 nuclei, beta rays can be electrons or positrons, gamma rays are high-energy electromagnetic waves.These are known as alpha, beta, and gamma rays.

What are the relative velocity of alpha beta gamma?
The relative velocity of alpha with respect to beta is the velocity of alpha minus the velocity of beta. The relative velocity of beta with respect to gamma is the velocity of beta minus the velocity of gamma. The relative velocity of alpha with respect to gamma is the velocity of alpha minus the velocity of gamma.
Is alpha and beta decay are almost always accompanied by what?
Alpha and beta decay are often accompanied by the emission of gamma radiation. Gamma radiation is a high-energy form of electromagnetic radiation that helps to stabilize the nucleus after alpha or beta decay.
Why is gamma radiation different from alpha and beta radiation?
Gamma radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation, whereas alpha and beta radiation are composed of particles. Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength and highest energy, whereas alpha and beta particles are larger and less penetrating. Gamma radiation does not carry an electric charge, while alpha and beta particles do.
