What is the parent radioisotope if a beta decay produces barium-137?
Cesium-137
Why does cesium-137 undergo radioactive decay?
It's not just Cesium 137. Of the 3000 or so known isotopes, MOST undergo radioactive decay. Only a fairly small percentage of the isotopes are stable. Usually, stability is achieved when the amount of neutrons, compared to the amount of protons, is "just right" - not too few, not too many. For the heavier elements (beyond lead), stability is no longer possible for ANY isotope.
How many protons electron neutrons and nucleons in a barium atom?
Proton = 1 Neutron = 1 Electron = 0.00054
What other isotope besides tellurium-137 is produced by nuclear fission of uranium-235?
Strontium-90 and cesium-137 and a whole lot more.
How many neutrons are contained in an atom of barium - 136?
The atomic number of barium is 56. So there are 56 protons and 56 electrons.
Does cesium 137 become cesium 135?
Only if it loses two neutrons
What is the symbol of an isotope of cesium whose atoms have 82 neutrons?
You are looking for the symbol of cesium (Cs) and indication of its mass number. The mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons. So if every atom of cesium has 55 protons, then the mass number of this isotope is 137. The mass number is indicated in superscript before the symbol: 137Cs
How many protons and neutrons does cesium 134 have?
Cesium has an atomic number of 55. Fifty-five indicates the number of protons and electrons. The task here is to find the number of neutrons. To do so, take 134 and subtract 55 to get 79.
What is the symbol for cesium 137?
137Cs55 is the symbol for cesium 137.
How may protons does caesium have?
there are 55 protons Cs in the periodic table .
How many protons are in Cesium-135 (Cs)?
Your moms vagina
What is the weight of cesium?
Ceasium is a metal element. Atomic mass of it is 133.

How is cesium-137 used in medical servises?
your a sped!!! :V)
Can cesium 137 be dissolved by chlorine?
Cesium-137 will react with chlorine to form cesium chloride. However it is highly radioactive so must be handled carefully, because of this it is often used to treat cancer patients and sterilize medical equipment and some foods.
