What else can I help you with?
What do you call a atom that decays?
An atom whose nucleus decays over time is called radioactive. Some examples of radioactive substances are uranium, plutonium, and einsteinium.
What is it called when an atom decays and become another element?
Radioactivity
Which particle is emitted when an atom OF 85Kr spontaneously decays?
When an atom of 85Kr spontaneously decays, it emits a beta particle. This decay process involves the transformation of a neutron into a proton, with the emission of an electron and an antineutrino.
What new atom is formed as tritium decays?
Tritium decay to helium-3.
What is the term for the element that a radioactive isotope decay into?
The term for the element that a radioactive isotope decays into is called the "daughter product". During radioactive decay, the original isotope transforms into a different element or isotope through a series of decay reactions.
When a uranium atom 92u235 decays radioactivity to became protactinium 91u231 the radiation emitted are?
entropy
An excited atom decays to it's ground state and emits a proton of green light if instead the atom decays to an intermediate state what could the light emitted be?
If an atom that emits a green proton when it decays to its ground state decays to an intermediate state instead it will emit a proton that is yellow/orange/red. The reason is that it will be a lower energy proton emitted and lower energy waves correspond to longer wavelengths like the ones that make up these colors.
What is the definition of a parent isotope?
according to google XD, this is the radioactive atom that decays to product a daughter isotope
Why we find alpha beta and gamma rays in many radioactive elements?
That's what an atom emits when it decays.
What alpha decays to 234Th and α?
Th-230 -> He-4 + Ra-226 Thorium which alpha decays produces an alpha particle (Helium 4) and a Radium-226 atom.
What is a good argument for things fall apart?
The universe is chaotic. As every atom was formed, eventually every atom will fall apart. Every atom decays, although some at very very slow rates.
Can electrons be found in the nucleus of an atom?
Though the electron itself is not present in the nucleus of an atom, the elementary particles that make up the electron are present inside the neutron. In other words, a neutron is made up of an electron and a proton. How do we know this? Because when a neutron decays, it slowly decays into a proton and an electron. It's a cycle.
