222Rn------ 218Po------ 214Pb------ 214Bi----- 214Po------ 210Pb-------- 210Bi------- 210Po-------- 206Pb
The isotope 222Rn is an alpha particles emitter.

What is a cell structure that forms passage ways in which proteins and other materials threw the cell?
nucleus
How are heavier metals formed?
The heaviest of all elements are formed by bombardment of two ions into each other ( eg Zinc and Lead) which then forms a highly unstable heavy element that very rapidly decays into smaller elements.
What type of energy is released when one element decays into other element?
kinetic energy
What controls all the other parts of the cell?
The nucleus, it is like the brain of the cell.
When an element decays what does it lose?
in alpha decay it loses a helium nucleus (2 protons, 2 neutrons)in beta decay a neutron converts to a proton and it ejects an electron and a neutrinoin gamma decay an excited nuclear state relaxes and a gamma photon is emittedin "k-capture" an inner electron is eaten by the nucleus converting a proton to a neutron and it ejects a neutrinothere are also a few other mechanisms.
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.
What type of radiation is emitted when polonium-212 forms lead-208?
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.
What is a cell structure that forms passage ways in which proteins and other materials threw the cell?
nucleus
Nucleus of carbon atom?
Nucleus of the standard isotope of carbon atom has 6 protons and 6 neutrons (carbon 12). Other Isotopes of carbon atoms are also possible, such as C14, which has 8 neutrons, and decays by beta particle emission into nitrogen.
What type of energy is released when one element decays into other elements?
This would be radioactivity in which alpha or beta particles are released. The nucleus concerned decays into another nucleus with lower energy, resulting in ejection of the particle which has kinetic energy, until it is absorbed into some other material which will happen quite quickly. See the link below for more discussion of the energy changes
Which cloud forms hail?
Hail is a product of cumulonimbus clouds. In other words, thunderstorms.
What happens when an organism decays?
other organisms eat it away
What is the daughter nucleus produced wnhen 213Bi undergoes alpha decay?
209 83Bi
What is the only fuel that forms water as a by-product when its burned?
Hydrogen is the only fuel that forms exclusively water when burned. Other fuels will form water in addition to other by-products such as carbon dioxide.
Are these available in chewable forms?
Sometimes yes and other times no, it depends on the product really, but if you insist on chewing the product there must be a chew able form of it somewhere.
How are heavier metals formed?
The heaviest of all elements are formed by bombardment of two ions into each other ( eg Zinc and Lead) which then forms a highly unstable heavy element that very rapidly decays into smaller elements.
How bond forms when two atoms share one of more pairs of elements?
The positively charged nucleus of each of the atoms attracts the shared electrons of the other atom and thus forms the covalent bond.
