Each isotope, stable or unstable, has a specific symbol; for example K-40 for potassium 40.

What is the breakdown of a radioactive isotope into a stable isotope?
it must eject the extra nucleons and should be conveted into a stable isotope.
What is the processes where an unstable parent isotope becomes a stable daughter isotope called?
Succesive radioactive disintegrations in a radioactive series.
What is the atomic mass of roentgenium?
The atomic mass of the most stable isotope of Roentgenium is 281. This most stable isotope decays in around 36seconds. Oddly, it's most stable isotope has the same atomic mass as the most stable isotope of the element before: Darmstadtium.
When an unstable isotope decays the daughter isotope that results is always a stable isotope true or false?
Technically the answer is false, however the answer most tests accept as the correct answer is True.According to Nuclear theory when a parent undergoes decay and produces a daughter isotope the daughter may be stable or it may be unstable and further decay until a final stable granddaughter isotope is formed. This process is called a decay chain, however since eventually a stable isotope is formed the acceptable answer is True, even though technically it is not the case.
How is a radioactive isotope different from a stable isotope?
The radioactive isotope is disintegrated in time and emit radiations.
What is the stable isotope that is formed by the breakdown of a radioactive isotope?
That's called a daughter isotope, or a daughter product. (The original isotope that decayed is the parent isotope.)
What is The loss of a particle as an atom tries to become stable called?
isotope

What is the slow breakdown of radioactive substances into more stable elements?
Radioactive elements break down in to stable isotopes through nuclear decay. The list of isotopes from a nuclear isotope to a stable isotope is called its decay chain.

Does uranium not have a stable isotope?
Uranium hasn't stable isotopes.
How is radioactive Isotope different from a stable isotope?
The radioactive isotope is disintegrated in time and emit radiations.
How is a radioactive isotope different from a stable isotope?
The radioactive isotope is disintegrated in time and emit radiations.
What is a stable isotope?
Stable isotopes are chemical isotopes that are not radioactive, meaning that they do not spontaneously undergo radioactive decay.
What is the stable produced by the radioactive decay of a parent isotope?
daughter isotope
