What is the alpha decay of the Thorium isotope Th 232?

Seems some mistake in printing the mass number of thorium. It has to be 227. No Th-225 is available as far as the tables have been analysed. When a alpha particle comes out then the atomic number of parent is reduced by 2 and its mass number will be reduced by 4. So in case of Th-227, it gets changed to Ra-223 after the emission of an alpha particle.


What isotopes remains after the alpha decay of uranium-238?

What element does radium become once it has decayed?

Radium undergoes radioactive decay, specifically alpha decay, to become radon. Radium-226 (226Ra) will undergo alpha decay releasing that alpha particle, which is a helium-4 nucleus, to become radon-222 (222Rn).


What is the weight of radium?

Although the atomic mass number of radon is often given as 220, there are 39 isotopes and isomers of radon. The common isomers of radon are : radon-219, radon-220, and radon-222.
