I do not see an isotope of iridium that does alpha decay. There is an interactive link to isotopes below. (Perhaps I am missing it.)
The nuclear equation for the alpha decay of 242Pu is: ^24294Pu -> ^23892U + ^4He2 This equation shows that the nucleus of 242Pu decays into a nucleus of 238U and an alpha particle, which is a helium-4 nucleus.
A:Uranium - 238 --> Pb - 206 + Alpha + Beta note this is a simplified over all reaction, the actual process involves around 15 steps...A:The equation for the alpha decay of 238U is: 92238U --> 90234Th + 24HeThe alpha particle is represented as an He nucleus.
The equation for the alpha decay of 234U is: 92234U --> 90230Th + 24He representing the alpha particle as a helium nucleus. 234U also decays by spontaneous fission, but the results are somewhat unpredictable, so there is no standard equation.

If radon-210 undergoes alpha decay, it will produce the alpha particle (which is a helium-4 nucleus) and polonium-206. The equation looks like this: 86210Ra => 24He + 84206Po You'll note that in the balanced nuclear equation, the atomic numbers, which are the subscripts, balance on both sides of the equation (86 = 2 + 84). The atomic masses, which are the superscripts, also balance on both sides of the equation (210 = 4 + 206).
The equation for the alpha decay of 226Ra: 88226Ra --> 86222Rn + 24He The alpha particle is represented as a helium (He) nucleus.
Uranium-239 does NOT decay by alpha decay, it decays only by beta and gammadecay.
The balanced nuclear equation for the alpha decay of thorium-230 is: ^230Th → ^226Ra + ^4He
The nuclear equation for the alpha decay of 242Pu is: ^24294Pu -> ^23892U + ^4He2 This equation shows that the nucleus of 242Pu decays into a nucleus of 238U and an alpha particle, which is a helium-4 nucleus.
The equation for the alpha decay of 213At: 85213At --> 83209Bi + 24He where the alpha particle is represented as a helium nucleus.
The equation for the alpha decay of 265Bh is:107265Bh --> 105261Db + 24He where the 24He is an alpha particle or helium nucleus.

The nuclear equation for the decay of Po-210 undergoing 2 alpha decays followed by a beta decay and another alpha decay is: Po-210 -> Pb-206 + 4 He-4 + 2 e-1 + 2 v This equation represents the series of decays that result in the transformation of Po-210 into Pb-206, with the emission of two helium nuclei (alpha particles), two electrons, and two neutrinos.
The first step is an alpha decay to (guess what!) uranium 235. You can probably take it from there.
The equation for the alpha decay of 233U is: 92233U --> 90229Th + 24He representing the alpha particle as a helium nucleus. 223U can also undergo fission, but since this is an rather unpredictable process, there is no standard equation.
The equation for the alpha decay of 235U is: 92235U --> 90231Th + 24He representing the alpha particle as a helium nucleus. 235U also decays by spontaneous fission, but the results are somewhat unpredictable, so there is no standard equation.
