What is radioactive disintegration series?
A disintegration series is the pathway of a radioactively unstable element into a stable element. The pathway alters the atomic number of the element and converts the element into another element. A common one is the uranium disintegration series.
How uranium nucleus become stable?
Being radioactive, uranium is not a stable element.
What does it mean when you say an element is stable?
This element (more correct in this case is isotope) doesn't suffer a radioactive disintegration.
What is the stable element for the uranium decay chain?
Isotopes of lead
Does uranium exist in a stable non-radioactive form?
All the isotopes of uranium are radioactive and unstable.
Which is the next stable element after uranium?
none, uranium itself is unstable, there are no stable elements after bismuth; and even some researchers suggest that bismuth is an unstable radioactive element with a halflife approaching twice the age of the universe.
Which element is uranium transformed into?
The end element of the uranium decay chain is a stable isotope of lead.
Is it true that the daughter products of nuclear explosions produce heavy but stable isotopes of uranium?
No, the daughter products of nuclear explosions do not produce stable isotopes of uranium. Instead, uranium isotopes can undergo fission or neutron capture to form various other radioactive isotopes as byproducts.
What is the stable isotope that results from the decay of radioactive elements?
The stable isotope that results from the decay of radioactive elements varies depending on the specific element undergoing decay. For example, uranium-238 decays to lead-206, while carbon-14 decays to nitrogen-14. These stable isotopes are often the end products of a decay chain, where a series of transformations ultimately leads to a stable state. Each radioactive element has its unique decay pathway and stable end products.
Does uranium not have a stable isotope?
Uranium hasn't stable isotopes.
The uranium decay chain ends when the final disintergration product is the stable element?
Yes, that's correct. The uranium decay chain ends with the stable element lead-206. As uranium-238 undergoes alpha and beta decay, it transforms through various radioactive isotopes before reaching lead-206, which is stable and not subject to further radioactive decay.
What is the scientist Marie Curie known for?
