The atomic number is 86 which gives the number of protons. 220Rn has 220 protons and neutrons so the neutron count iscalcualted as follows:

220 -86 = 134 neutrons

220Rn is an unstable isotope of Radon.

What is the product of the alpha decay of Rn-220?

The product of the alpha decay of Rn-220 is Ra-216. During alpha decay, an alpha particle, which is a helium nucleus with 2 protons and 2 neutrons, is emitted from the radon-220 nucleus, resulting in the formation of radium-216.


What is the equation for the alpha decay of radium 224?

An alpha particle consists of 2 Neutrons and 2 Protons, therefore A=4, Z=2.For Ra-224: A=224, Z=88.Subtracting the values for the alpha particle from Radium-224:A = (224-4) = 220Z = (88-2) = 86The nucleus with a Z of 86 is Radon, or in this case, Rn-220.So that: Ra-224 --> Rn-220 + AlphaBut alpha particles are just Helium-4 nuclei.Ra-224 --> Rn-220 + He-4

What are berkelium's nuclear properties?

Some berkelium nuclear properties are: - berkelium is radioactive and unstable - berkelium has 26 isotopes and isomers - the electron configuration is [Rn]5f97s2 - berkelium has 97 protons in the nucleus; the number of neutrons is different for each isotope - during disintegration berkelium emit alfa particles, electrons or positrons


220 RN yields to alpha particle po-216 what particle or type of radiation needs to be included to balance the equation?

To balance the nuclear equation, a beta particle (negatron) must be included. The balanced equation would be 220/88 Ra -> 4/2 He (alpha particle) + 212/86 Rn + 2 -1 e.


What element will result if two protons and two neutrons are ejected from a uranium nucleus?

If two protons and two neutrons are removed from a uranium nucleus, the new element is thorium. The isotope cannot be determined because the identity of the uranium isotope was not given.


What is the charge on plutonium atom?

Nuclear fission of some isotopes release a great quantity of energy. Plutonium is a fissile material (isotopes 239Pu and 241Pu); it is used in nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons. Also Pu(alpha,n)Be is a source of neutrons and Pu is used as power or heat source.
