Polonium, which has an atomic number of 84, decays to astatine, which has an atomic number of 85, a negative beta particle is emitted.
An Alpha particle, and associated gamma radiation from the excited nucleus.
Alpha decay is involved when polonium-214 decays into lead-210. In alpha decay, an alpha particle (2 protons and 2 neutrons) is emitted from the nucleus, reducing the atomic number by 2 and the mass number by 4.
An alpha particle is emitted when Pu-240 decays to U-236. It consists of two protons and two neutrons and is commonly emitted in alpha decay processes.
Some possible decays:- U-231------------Pa-231 (by electron capture)- U-229------------Pa-229 (emission of a beta particle)- U-228------------Pa-228 (by electron capture)
bismuth 210 decays by beta decay to polonium 210 that decays by alpha decay to lead 206
Polonium-212 loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons when it decays to lead-208. These 2 protons and 2 neutrons are lost as a single Helium nucleus. In other words, it is an alpha decay.
Carbon-14 decays by beta-, which emits a W- boson that immediately decays into an electron and an electron anti-neutrino.

bismuth 210 decays by beta decay to polonium 210 that decays by alpha decay to lead 206
It doesn't "go" anywhere. It radioactively decays and changes into a different element.

Radon-222 undergoes alpha decay to produce polonium-218as a daughter.
When P-32 decays to S-32, a beta particle is emitted. This beta particle is an electron released during the conversion of a neutron into a proton within the nucleus of the atom.
