After undergoing alpha decay an atom of radium -226 becomes?
Radium 226 decays by alpha emission to Radon 222. A helium nucleus is emitted by alpha emission which makes the mass reduce by 4 and its atomic number by 2.
What is the decay process of lead 210?
An alpha and a beta emission
If seaborgium undergoes alpha decay which element is created?
Isotopes of rutherfordium.
When radon undergoes natural transmutation reaction it emits?
alpha particle
What is the product of the alpha decay of berkelium?
Alpha decay of any radionuclide would reduce the atomic number by 2 and reduce the atomic mass number by 4. As such, berkelium would decay by alpha emission to americium. Note that not all isotopes of berkelium decay by alpha emission. In terms of percentages, the most predominate example is ... 97247Bk --> (T1/2 = 1380 years) --> 95243Am + 24He2+

What happens when californium 251 decays into curium 247?
Californium-251 decay by alpha emission.
What has the weakest penetrating powers with radioactive emission?
alpha
What type of radiation alpha beta or gamma is emitted by thorium-230?
alpha particles.
Would an atom of radioactive gold be more likely to decay by alpha emission or beta emission?
Gold never decays by alpha emission, it either decays by -beta, +beta, K capture, or gamma emission depending on isotope.Natural gold is isotopically pure gold-197, which is stable.
What does thorium-234 turns to after alpha and gamma emission?
Thorium-234 don't emit alpha particles.
What radioactive emission is that most easily absorbed?
Alpha particles.
The radioactive emission with the weakest penetrating power is the?
alpha ray.

alpha
