What radioactive element turns to lead when it has lost lots of energy?

It is uranium that is changed into lead during radioactive decay. Note that there are a number of intermediate steps in the conversion of uranium into stable lead. The uranium does not change directly into lead. The uranium atom undergoes decay, and a radioactive daughter product appears. This continues with radioactive daughters appearing at the end of every step - until lead appears.


Differences between stable and unstable elements in the periodic table?

A stable element is an element that does not provide radioactivity. 1 kg of Gold will be 1 kg of gold even after 100.000 years. It is a stable element. An unstable element (like Uranium or Plutoneum) gives off radioactivity and actually form new elements like lead. 1 kg of pure Uranium will be 500 grams of Uranium and 500 grams of lead after 100.000 years. Times given and breakdown products are for illustrative purposes only. Degradation of unstable materials is not my science but I know the basics of it :-) Regards.


What is radioactive disintegration series?

A disintegration series is the pathway of a radioactively unstable element into a stable element. The pathway alters the atomic number of the element and converts the element into another element. A common one is the uranium disintegration series.
