What radioactive decay would uranium...238 be if it undergoes alpha then beta then beta then beta then alpha then alpha?
238U --> 234Th + 4He 234Th --> 234Pa + e- 234Pa --> 234U + e- 234U --> 234Np + e-, not possible
What does bismuth 210 become when it undergoes alpha decay?
bismuth 210 decays by beta decay to polonium 210 that decays by alpha decay to lead 206
When U-238 decays to th-234 what has been emitted?
When U-238 decays to Th-234, an alpha particle is emitted. An alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons, and is essentially a helium nucleus.
What type of decay is involved when polonium -214 decays into lead -210?
It is alpha decay. In the process, an alpha particle(He2+) is released. So, it is called alpha decay.
What element decays to form helium and francium?
Actinium 225Ac--------alpha (4He) + 221Fr
Write a nuclear equation for the indicated decay of Uranium 234?
The equation for the alpha decay of 234U is: 92234U --> 90230Th + 24He representing the alpha particle as a helium nucleus. 234U also decays by spontaneous fission, but the results are somewhat unpredictable, so there is no standard equation.
What decays into 234Th plus a?
This is the isotope of uranium - U-238.
What element is formed when uranium-238atomic number92ejects an alpha particle?
238U radiates alpha particles and decays via 234Th and 234Pa into 234U, which has a halflife of 245,500 years. (Thorium-234, Protactinium-234, Uranium-234 respectively)
What radioactive decay would uranium...238 be if it undergoes alpha then beta then beta then beta then alpha then alpha?
238U --> 234Th + 4He 234Th --> 234Pa + e- 234Pa --> 234U + e- 234U --> 234Np + e-, not possible
What does bismuth 210 become when it undergoes alpha decay?
bismuth 210 decays by beta decay to polonium 210 that decays by alpha decay to lead 206
What happens when thorium 234 undergoes beta decay?
You'd have to specify the isotope of thorium for us to definitively identify the isotope produced. A thorium atom that undergoes alpha decay will become a radium atom. However, we can't identify the specific isotope of radium without knowing the number of neutrons in the original thorium atom.
What are two different forms of radioactive decay?
Alpha and beta decays.
What is a good decay equation for uranium decay's to alpha decay?
There are 3 naturally occurring isotopes of Uranium, all decay by alpha to Thorium:238U --> 234Th + 4He235U --> 231Th + 4He234U --> 230Th + 4He
What does bismuth -224 decays by alpha decay to?
Go nnn and the other one and get it.
What is the nuclear equation for the alpha decay of uranium 239?
Uranium-239 does NOT decay by alpha decay, it decays only by beta and gammadecay.
When U-238 decays to th-234 what has been emitted?
When U-238 decays to Th-234, an alpha particle is emitted. An alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons, and is essentially a helium nucleus.
What type of decay is involved when polonium -214 decays into lead -210?
It is alpha decay. In the process, an alpha particle(He2+) is released. So, it is called alpha decay.
