If technetium 99 emits a gamma ray what is the product?
Radium 226 has decays by Alpha emmision to produce Radon-222. Sometimes a gamma ray is emmited at the same time and lower energy alpha is emitted the product is same in both cases. Gamma emmision by itself causes no change to the atom the nucleus just ends up with a lower energy.
Which particle of the atom has no change?
Nucleus
Why does alpha radiation produce the greatest change in mass number?
An alpha particle consists of 2 neutrons and 2 protons which are lost from the nucleus of the decaying particle so the mass of those particles is lost.
What particles give the nucleus its positive change?
The protons
When a neutron enters a fissionable nucleus its entire momentum is transferred to the nucleus Does this accelerate the remaining nucleus or is the momentum transformed somehow?
Conservation of momentum means that the speed of the nucleus (the combined nucleus, after absorbing the neutron), must change, yes.
If an atom decays by gamma decay Which atom is left after the decay?
14 7 N

What is the change of an nucleus?
An atomic nucleus has a positive charge.
What are the nuclear change?
Nuclear change is the change in the nucleus of the atom.
A change in the atomic nucleus is?
Decaying.
Which particle of the atom has no change?
Nucleus
What part of an atom causes radioactivity?
It is the nucleus of the atom that undergoes change during radioactive decay.
The electric change of protons in the nucleus is the-?
The electric change of protons in the nucleus is called electric force. It is form between the gravitation of two objects.
How did the discovery of the nucleus change Thomson's theory?
After the discovery of the nucleus positive charge (nucleus) is completely separated from the negative charges (electrons).
Why does alpha radiation produce the greatest change in mass number?
An alpha particle consists of 2 neutrons and 2 protons which are lost from the nucleus of the decaying particle so the mass of those particles is lost.
Is the nucleus responsible for the cells behavior?
no because when the nucleus is removed from the cell the cell's behavior doesn't change
What is a change in the atomic nucleus?
this depends on the nucleus and will be very positive = +1.6x10^-19 times the number of protons
