beta
What is the daughter product in the beta decay of 144Ce?
The daughter product in the beta decay of 144Ce is 144Pr, which stands for promethium. Promethium is a radioactive element that forms as a result of the beta decay of cerium-144.
A negative charged particle emitted during radioactive decay?
The negative charged particle emitted during radioactive decay is called a beta particle. It is essentially an electron that is released from the nucleus of the atom undergoing decay in order to conserve charge. Beta decay occurs when a neutron in the nucleus is transformed into a proton, releasing a beta particle and an antineutrino.
What charge does a beta particle contain?
neutral charge. this is because a beta decay gains a proton and loses a neutron.
The daughter isotope produced by a beta decay of 234th is?
"Beta decay" is used for two different processes. However, the kind undergone by 234Th produces 234Pa.
What does the e represent in beta decay equations?
In beta decay equations, e- refers to an electron (in beta-), and e+ refers to a positron (in beta+).Not asked, but answered for completeness, ve refers to the electron neutrino that accompanies the positron, and v-e refers to the electron antineutrino that accompanies the electron.
What is the equations for the beta of nitrogen-14?
nitrogen-14 is stable, it does not decay.
What is the nuclear decay equation for potassium 40?
There are three beta decay modes for 40K, and so three equations. The equation for the negative beta decay of 40K: 1940K --> 2040Ca + -10e where the -10e represents a beta particle or electron. The equation for the positive beta decay of 40K: 1940K --> 1840Ar+ 10e where the 10e represents a positive beta particle or positron. The equation for the decay of 40K by electron capture is:1940K + -10e --> 1840Ar + ve
What is the nuclear decay equation for cesium 137?
The equation for the beta decay of 137Cs is: 55137Cs --> 56137Ba + -10e where the -10e is a negative beta particle or electron.
What are three types of beta decay?
There are two types of beta decay, and they are beta plus (beta +) decay and beta minus (beta -) decay. A post already exists on beta decay, and a link to that related question can be found below.
What is the nuclear decay equation for iridium 174?
There are two ways 174Ir can decay, alpha and positive beta, so there are two different equations. The equation for the alpha decay of 174Ir is: 77174Ir --> 75170Re + 24He representing the alpha particle as a helium nucleus. The equation for the beta+ decay of 174Ir is: 77174Ir --> 76174Os + 10e + ve wher 10e represents a positive beta particle or positron.
The equations decay of Mb-99 to Tc-99?
Technetium-99 is produced through the decay of Molybdenum-99. Molybdenum-99 undergoes beta decay to form Technetium-99, with the emission of a beta particle (electron) and an antineutrino. This decay process is commonly utilized in nuclear medicine for imaging and diagnostic purposes.

How do you do nuclear decay equations?
To write nuclear decay equations, you would typically start with the parent nucleus and identify the type of decay (alpha, beta, gamma). Then, you would balance the equation by conserving mass number and atomic number on both sides of the equation. Finally, you write the decay products. Remember to include the correct particles emitted during the decay process.
Why energy of beta particles is different in beta particle decay?
The energy of beta particles in beta decay is not fixed because it depends on the specific isotope and decay process involved. Beta decay can produce high-energy electrons and positrons through beta minus and beta plus decay, respectively. The energy of the beta particles is determined by the energy released during the decay process.
Alpha and beta decay emit what?
Alpha decay emits an alpha particle, which consists of two protons and two neutrons. Beta decay emits either an electron (beta minus decay) or a positron (beta plus decay).
