bismuth will contain 81 protons turning into Thallium with an atomic number of 81. If it emits a beta particle it doesn't change its still bismuth, only it become more energetic.

What happens to a radioactive nucleus when it emits alpha particle and What happens to a radioactive nucleus when it emits alpha particle?
dude..
What is lost from the nucleus of atom when it emits an alpha particle?
2 neutrons and 2 protons (this is what an alpha particle is made up of).
When radon undergoes natural transmutation reaction it emits?
alpha particle
What change in mass occurs when a radioactive atom emits an alpha particle?
4 from the alpha. Betas have negligible mass and gammas have no mass.
What element does thorium become if it emits an alpha particle?
The nuclear reaction is: 232Th--------------- 228Ra + α

What element does californium make when it emits an alpha particle?
Curium isotopes
When radon undergoes natural transmutation reaction it emits?
alpha particle
What change in mass occurs when a radioactive atom emits an alpha particle?

What element does thorium-230 decay when it emits an alpha particle?
226 88Ra
When radium atomic number 88 emits an alpha particle the resulting nucleus has atomic numbers?
226Ra------------alpha particle----------222Rn (radon, a radioactive gas)
What is the change in the atomic number when the atom emits an alpha particle?
The atomic number will decrease by 2, the number of protons in the emitted alpha particle. An alpha particle is a helium-4 nuclei with two protons and two neutrons.
What element does thorium 230 decay when it emits an alpha particle?
This isotope is radium-226.
If the isotope bismuth-213 emits an alpha particle two protons and two neutrons which element will be left over?
Emitting an alpha particle 213Bi become 209Tl.
What changes take place in the nucleus when an alpha particle is emitted?
In short, alpha radiation occurs when an unstable nucleus emits 2 protons and 2 neutrons from it's nucleus. This means that the atomic number decreases by 2 and the nucleon number decreases by 4.
What element does thorium become if it emits an alpha particle?
The nuclear reaction is: 232Th--------------- 228Ra + α
