Cs-137 decays to become the metastable element Ba-137m which has a half-life of only 2 minutes 55 and then it eventually becomes Barium-137.
The nucleus undergoes a transition in which one of the neutrons becomes a proton which moves it up on the Periodic Table one place to become Barium-137. During this process is gives off a photon (gamma) with an energy level of approximately 662 keV.
When cesium-137 undergoes beta minus decay, it transforms into barium-137.
If chromium undergoes gamma decay, it remains as chromium. Gamma decay is a type of radioactive decay where a nucleus releases gamma rays to reach a more stable state, but the identity of the element remains the same.
If the parent element undergoes beta decay, it will transform into a daughter element with an atomic number that is one greater than the parent element. This occurs when a neutron in the nucleus is transformed into a proton, releasing an electron (beta particle) and an antineutrino.
Yes, bohrium is a radioactive element. It is highly unstable and undergoes radioactive decay, emitting radiation in the process.
Alpha decay is a kind of radioactive decay in which an alpha particle is emitted from an atom. An alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons. Therefore, when an atom of an element undergoes alpha decay, it loses two protons, which changes the atom from one element to another. This is because each different element is identified by the number of protons in its atomic nuclei.
Yes, the daughter element of carbon-14 is nitrogen. Carbon-14 undergoes beta decay to form nitrogen-14.
That depends on the type of decay, alpha and beta decay change the atom into a different element but gamma decay does not.
If seaborgium undergoes alpha decay, it would create rutherfordium as the resulting element.
When an oxygen-19 nucleus undergoes beta decay, a nitrogen-19 nucleus is formed. In beta decay, a neutron is converted into a proton, causing the atomic number to increase by one while keeping the mass number the same.
The lightest "element" that can undergo radioactive decay is the isotope hydrogen-3, which undergoes beta decay. The lightest element with no radioactively stable isotopes is technetium, and its isotopes have different modes of decay.
This isotope is transformed in another isotope of another element.
It is possible if the element undergoes nuclear decay. But this is possible only for unstable isotopes.
When an element undergoes nuclear transmutation the result is a completely different element or isotope. All transmutation occurs through decay or nuclear reaction.
aluminum-28
a new element is formed
nothing, but another isotope with the same atomic mass is formed
If chromium undergoes gamma decay, it remains as chromium. Gamma decay is a type of radioactive decay where a nucleus releases gamma rays to reach a more stable state, but the identity of the element remains the same.
When an unstable magnesium nucleus undergoes gamma decay, it remains as a magnesium nucleus. Gamma decay does not change the atomic number or mass number of the nucleus, only releasing a gamma photon to reduce excess energy.
