What is lost during radioactive decay?

Decay energy is the energy that has been freed during radioactive decay. When radioactive decay is ongoing it drops off some energy by means of discharging radiation.

What process is a radioactive decay?

The process of a radioactive decay is atomic nucleus of an unstable atom loses energy by emitting ionizing particles


How are energy loss and nuclear stability related to radioactive decay?

The more unstable an atom the more likely it is to lose energy. The process atoms losing energy this way is called radioactive decay.


When an atom undergoes radioactive decay the energy released in the reaction comes from what?

The energy that comes from the radioactive decay of an atom can come from the electrons and can come from the strong force inside the nucleus.


Why wouldn't heating radioactive uranium make it decay faster?

The thermal energy is minimal compared to nuclear energy; and the radioactive decay is not a thermodynamic process - it is nuclear physics process.


How matter and energy exchanged between the spheres?

Matter and energy are constantly exchanged between the spheres through different processes. These processes are in the form of chemical reactions, radioactive decay, the radiation of energy, & the growth and decay of organisms.
