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 is the nuclear equation for the decay of Po210 if it undergoes 2 alpha decay then a beta decay followed by another alpha decay.?
92Au 282Xe +13S
Uranium -238 undergoes alpha decay Therefore uranium -238 will?
Uranium 238 is transformed in thorium 234 by alpha decay.
If seaborgium undergoes alpha decay which element is created?
Isotopes of rutherfordium.
When a radon 222 nucleus decays what is the other product that forms?
Radon-222 undergoes alpha decay to produce polonium-218as a daughter.
If Sulfur 34 undergoes alpha decay what will it become?
S-34 is stable. It will not decay.
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 an atom undergoes radioactive decay does it become a different element?
That depends on the type of decay, alpha and beta decay change the atom into a different element but gamma decay does not.
What is the nuclear equation for the decay of Po210 if it undergoes 2 alpha decay then a beta decay followed by another alpha decay.?
92Au 282Xe +13S
When one neptunium isotope undergoes an alpha decay what does it become?
Npn decays to Pan-4 and alpha. Only isotopes 234, 235, and 237 of neptunium can undergo alpha decay, the others decay by beta-, beta+, K capture, and/or gamma decay. So the only products of neptunium alpha decay can be protactinium isotopes 230, 231, or 233.
Uranium -238 undergoes alpha decay Therefore uranium -238 will?
Uranium 238 is transformed in thorium 234 by alpha decay.
What radioactive isotope undergoes beta decay to produce sulfur 32?
Phosphorus-32 produces sulfur-32 by negative beta decay.
If seaborgium undergoes alpha decay which element is created?
Isotopes of rutherfordium.
Beta decay of neodymium-144?
Nope, Neodymium-144 undergoes Alpha decay to Cerium-140.
What is the alpha decay of calcium 42 equation?
There is no equation. Calcium-42 is stable and does not decay. Calcium is also much to light for alpha decay, which requires elements heavier than nickel, so no isotope of calcium undergoes alpha decay.
What product is produced when 232 90 Th undergoes alpha decay?
90Th232 undergoes alpha decay to form 88Ra228. Remember, in alpha decay, a helium nuclei is emitted, comprising two protons and two neutrons. As a result, the atomic number goes down by 2, and the atomic mass number goes down by 4.
What is the atomic number of a thorium atom that forms when 238 92U undergoes alpha decay?
It is 90.
