What is the parent radioisotope if a beta decay produces barium-137?
Cesium-137
How many protons electron neutrons and nucleons in a barium atom?
Proton = 1 Neutron = 1 Electron = 0.00054
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 neutrons are contained in an atom of barium - 136?
The atomic number of barium is 56. So there are 56 protons and 56 electrons.
What is the nuclear reaction for the transformation of Cs-137 into Ba-137?
Cs-137 undergoes beta decay to transform into Ba-137. In this process, a neutron within the Cs-137 nucleus is converted into a proton, a beta particle (electron) and an antineutrino are emitted, resulting in the formation of Ba-137.
Does cesium 137 become cesium 135?
Only if it loses two neutrons
What is the symbol for cesium 137?
137Cs55 is the symbol for cesium 137.
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 may protons does caesium have?
there are 55 protons Cs in the periodic table .
How many protons and neutrons does cesium 134 have?
Oh, dude, cesium-134 has 55 protons and around 79 neutrons. It's like the cool kid at the periodic table party, just hanging out with its atomic number of 55 and atomic mass of around 134. So, yeah, it's got its protons and neutrons chillin' like, "What's up, we're cesium-134."
How many protons are in Cesium-135 (Cs)?
Your moms vagina
What atom has an atomic number of 56 and a mass number of 137 amu?
Barium has an atomic number of 56 and a mass number of 137 amu
What is the half life of cesium 137?
The half-life of cesium-137 is about 30 years. This means that it takes 30 years for half of a sample of cesium-137 to decay into a more stable element.
What is the mass of 1 curie of cesium 137?
The mass of 1 curie of cesium-137 is approximately 3.7 grams.
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.
What is the weight of cesium?
Ceasium is a metal element. Atomic mass of it is 133.
What is the parent radioisotope if a beta decay produces barium-137?
Cesium-137
