Alpha decay is the loss of 2 protons and 2 neutrons
Beta-decay is the loss of a positron or electron
Gamma decay is the loss of a photon
The equation relates this loss to energy produced E=mc^2

When a radioactive isotope decays it gives off energy and produces a product called?
Another isotope is produced.
Adavntages and disadvantages for nuclear energy?
One advantage of nuclear energy is that it can produce far more power than other sources of energy including wind energy. One disadvantage of nuclear energy is the radioactive waste that is produced.
What chemical equations violates the law of conservation of energy?
Any chemical equations violates the law of conservation of energy.
What are radioactive wastes byproducts of?
A+ Nuclear energy
What energy transformation occurs during radioactive decay?
nuclear energy to thermal and radiant energy
What is produced by splitting the atom of a radioactive material?
nuclear energy
What kind of nuclear waste are produced by nuclear energy?
Radioactive waves
What equation relates this loss to energy produced?
E=mc^2 (apex)
What is produced when a radioactive element decays?
Energy, various sub-atomic particles, a different element.
When a radioactive isotope decays it gives off energy and produces a product called?
Another isotope is produced.
How much energy does uranium produce in a certain amount of time?
The energy produced by natural radioactive disintegration is small an important only at geological times scale.
How is solar energy produced and how can you cover it?
well solar energy is produced by sun and geothermal energy 2. Solar energy is produced by the Sun. All the fossil fuels are versions of stored ancient sunlight. [Geothermal energy results from the primeval heat within the earth, primarily created by radioactive decay, and with a small contribution from gravitation pressure.]
Adavntages and disadvantages for nuclear energy?
One advantage of nuclear energy is that it can produce far more power than other sources of energy including wind energy. One disadvantage of nuclear energy is the radioactive waste that is produced.
The energy of a sound wave relates to its?
it relates to amplitude
What kind of energy produces radioactive waste?
Nuclear Energy produces radioactive waste because if there isnt any sign of nuclear waste/energy in the sullotion/object then it wouldnt be counted as 'Radioactive'.
What is lost during radioactive decay?
Decay energy is the energy that has been freed during radioactive decay. When radioactive decay is ongoing it drops off some energy by means of discharging radiation.
What chemical equations violates the law of conservation of energy?
Any chemical equations violates the law of conservation of energy.
