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.
"Beta decay" is used for two different processes. However, the kind undergone by 234Th produces 234Pa.
The decay product of potassium in a process called beta decay is calcium. Potassium-40 undergoes beta decay to become argon-40, which then decays further to become calcium-40 over a long period of time.
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.
Yttrium-90 (Z= 39, N=51) decays to Zirconium-90 (Z=40, N=50) by emission of a beta particle (Neutron - > Proton + beta minus). Zirconium-90 is stable.
No. In both the cases the element would definitely change. As alpha particle comes out then the new element would have two less in atomic number where as in beta particle decay the new element will have one higher in atomic number.
A gamma wave...
The decay product of uranium 238 by alpha disintegration (not beta or gamma) is thorium 234.
We know that iodine-131 will undergo beta minus decay, and an electron will appear as a result. (An electron antineutrino will also be produced, but we don't want to go there in this topic.)
The product of beta decay of bismuth-209 is thallium-209. During beta decay, a neutron in the bismuth nucleus is converted into a proton, resulting in the emission of a beta particle (electron) and an antineutrino.
Product of radioactive decay 42He is an alpha particle
The product of the beta decay of bismuth-214 is the stable element polonium-214. During beta decay, a neutron in the nucleus of bismuth-214 is converted into a proton, with the emission of an electron (beta particle) and an antineutrino.
This isotope is lead-206.
"Beta decay" is used for two different processes. However, the kind undergone by 234Th produces 234Pa.
Yttrium-90 "the slash is important"
The product of beta decay of potassium-42 is calcium-42. In beta decay, a neutron in the potassium-42 nucleus is converted into a proton and an electron (beta particle), leading to the formation of calcium-42.
Bismuth-214 produces Polonium-214 by beta- decay. It also produces Thallium-210 by alpha decay, though at a much smaller percentage.
The other product in the beta decay of zirconium-93 is niobium-93. In beta decay, a neutron in the nucleus is converted to a proton, resulting in the formation of a new element with one higher atomic number.
