The equations decay of Mb-99 to Tc-99?

Technetium-99 is produced through the decay of Molybdenum-99. Molybdenum-99 undergoes beta decay to form Technetium-99, with the emission of a beta particle (electron) and an antineutrino. This decay process is commonly utilized in nuclear medicine for imaging and diagnostic purposes.


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.


How dangerous is technetium?

Technetium is not really dangerous. Since doctors will often use Technetium 99 as a radioactive tracer. It may be radioactive but its decay is slow and will produce a minute amount of gamma rays.

What change occurs in the nucleus of molybdenum to produce technetium?

In the nucleus of molybdenum, a neutron undergoes beta decay, transforming into a proton and emitting an electron and an antineutrino. This process converts the element into technetium by increasing the atomic number by one and maintaining the same mass number.
