A noble gas that is produced when radium undergoes radioactivity decay?
Yes, radon is a decay product in the uranium, thorium and actinium decay series.
How do you determine the radioactive decay of an element?
The radioactivity of the materials is measured with suitable instruments.
What are the elements of radioactivity?
Some of the elements on the Periodic Table are Radioactive. This means that their nuclei decay to form other elements in a decay chain. There are currently 33 known radioactive elements of which 20 are currently produced synthetically.
Three products of radioactive decay from most penetrating to least?
Gamma Beta Alpha
Is radioactive decay used to find the absolute age of a rock?
its not from radioactivity its from carbon dating
Process which unstable nuclei emit radiation is called?
This process through which unstable nuclei emit radiation is called radioactive decay. It also is called nuclear decay, and it is a natural process in which an atom of an isotope decomposes into a new element.
What is the process by which some substances spontaniously emit radiation?
All elements with an atomic number >83 are naturally radioactive
Are Betta rays radioactive?
No. Neither an electron nor an anti-electron will decay by themselves. If a positron (anti-electron) encounters an electron, both will get destroyed, but this is not radioactivity. Radioactivity is normally used for atoms, and refers to the fact that they decay spontaneously.Beta rays, however, are the result of certain types of radioactive decay.No. Neither an electron nor an anti-electron will decay by themselves.

Radioactivity is caused due to what?
spontaneous decay of unstable atomic nuclei.
Gamma rays are emitted by what?
they are emitted by radioactivity during radioactive decay.
What is the name of the process during which atomic nuclei decay?
D. Radioactivity
Gamma rays are emitted by?
they are emitted by radioactivity during radioactive decay.
A noble gas that is produced when radium undergoes radioactivity decay?
Yes, radon is a decay product in the uranium, thorium and actinium decay series.
What is The spontaneous decay of an atom is called?
Nuclear decay.Different types of nuclear decay include:Alpha Decay, where the nucleus ejects a charged particle made of protons and neutrons.Beta Decay, where a neutron turns into a proton, a Beta particle (an electron or positron) and a neutrino.Gamma radiation can also be emitted in these processes.
