234 is the mass of that particular Uranium isotope. Exactly 234,040 952 088 ± 0,000 001 960 u.a.
Thorium, with the chemical symbol Th, is the chemical element with the atomic number 90.
Unfortunately WikiAnswers doesn't accept subscript/superscript.For the isotope thorium-232: 232Th90232 is a superscript (mass number) and 90 is a subscript (atomic number).
This decay occurs due to the instability of the uranium-238 nucleus, which undergoes alpha decay to achieve a more stable configuration as thorium-234. During alpha decay, a helium nucleus (two protons and two neutrons) is emitted from the uranium-238 nucleus, leading to the transformation into thorium-234.
Thorium, or Th, has an atomic number of 90. That means that every atom of thorium has 90 protons. The only naturally abundant isotope of thorium is 232Th, and so therefore it has 232 - 90 = 142 neutrons.
After 48,2 days the amount of Th-234 will be 25 g.
Thorium, with the chemical symbol Th, is the chemical element with the atomic number 90.
Yes, it is possible; example for the mass number 234:- uranium-234: 92 protons + 142 neutrons- thorium-234: 90 protons + 144 neutrons
In beta decay of thorium-234, a neutron in the nucleus of thorium-234 is transformed into a proton, releasing an electron (beta particle) and an antineutrino. This process converts the thorium-234 nucleus into protactinium-234.
After 96 days, there would be approximately 1 gram of Thorium-234 left from the initial 4 grams. Thorium-234 has a half-life of 24.1 days, so after each half-life, the amount of Thorium-234 would be halved.
When uranium undergoes alpha decay, it emits an alpha particle (which is equivalent to a helium nucleus, ( ^4_2He )), resulting in a decrease of its atomic number by 2 and its mass number by 4. For example, if uranium-238 (( ^{238}{92}U )) undergoes alpha decay, it transforms into thorium-234 (( ^{234}{90}Th )). Thus, the notation for the thorium isotope produced is ( ^{234}_{90}Th ).
After 24,10(3) days (the half-time of this isotope) the mass is 50 %.
Thorium-234 does not decay into Protactinium-234. Instead, Thorium-234 naturally decays by alpha emission to Protactinium-230. The difference in decay modes is due to variances in their nuclear structures and energetics.
When thorium-234 undergoes beta decay, a neutron in the nucleus is converted into a proton, resulting in the formation of protactinium-234, with atomic number 91.
Thorium-234 don't emit alpha particles.
The mass number of the isotope uranium-234 is 142.
The half-life of thorium-234 is about 24 days. Therefore, it would take approximately 96 days for one-sixteenth of the original 54.2 g sample of thorium-234 to remain.
