What is the decay product of uranium-238?

U-238 is the most abundant (99.3%) of the three naturally occurring isotopes of Uranium. The other two are U-235 and U-234.U-238 decays spontaneously to Thorium-234 by alpha particle emission. This decays by beta decay to Protactinium-234 and then that undergoes beta decay to become U-234.There are many more decay steps by alpha and beta emission. The end result is Lead-206 which is stable.The full path can be found in the Argonne National Laboratories Human Health Fact Sheet, August 2005, titled Natural Decay Series: Uranium, Radium, and ThoriumThis is found at:http://www.ead.anl.gov/pub/doc/natural-decay-series.pdf


What does calcium phosphate look like?

Calcium Phosphate itself is basically a general term for a group of different compounds. But many of its forms appear to be a translucent white salt.


What does red m and ms do to you?

Red M & Ms do nothing different than any other color M & Ms. All M & Ms are candy; eating too many too often can cause tooth decay and obesity (like any other sweet.)


Type of nuclear reaction that results in the production of synthetic element?

Synthetic elements are mostly produced by neutron capture. This is different from decay, fission, or fusion, but is more like fusion. In neutron capture, a free neutron is captured by the nucleus of an atom, producing a new isotope. The new isotope is likely to have too many neutrons, because it was a neutron that it captured. With too many neutrons, it wants to undergo decay by converting a neutron into a proton, and emitting a negative beta particle. This does not alter the mass number, but it does increase the number of protons in the atom by one, and so it increases the atomic number by one. For example, an atom of 237Np captures a neutron and becomes 238Np, which decays by negative beta decay to become 238Pu. Some synthetic elements are produced by fusion.


How many years does it take for ink to decompose?

Ink is not comprised of anything that will rot or decay. The liquid would simply be absorbed into whatever material is surrounding it.
