Which atom could not possibly emit an alpha particle?

Alpha particles consist of two protons and two neutrons (the nucleus of a helium atom). Therefore, Hydrogen is the only element that doesn't contain (and can't emit) an alpha particle.


What radiation does a nucleus with more than 82 protons usually emit?

An Alpha particle


An excited atom decays to it's ground state and emits a proton of green light if instead the atom decays to an intermediate state what could the light emitted be?

If an atom that emits a green proton when it decays to its ground state decays to an intermediate state instead it will emit a proton that is yellow/orange/red. The reason is that it will be a lower energy proton emitted and lower energy waves correspond to longer wavelengths like the ones that make up these colors.


How does a laser particle counter work?

Particle characterization plays key role in powder industry especially in particle size analysis. The latest technology of particle characterization is to use a particle size analyzer (also named Particle Size Analyser) running particle size analysis by laser diffraction technology. Laser diffraction is a phenomenon when a light illuminates particles inside an analyzer (analyser) the light is diffracted by the particles in different sizes. The scattered patterns of particle size go through analysis by an analyzer (analyser) and the Particle Size Analysis software gives results of particle size distribution. Particle Characterization by Laser Diffraction is of great significance for material characterization.AS-2011 Laser Particle Size Analyzer (also named Laser Particle Size Analyser) works with principle of Mie Scattering to precisely determine the particle size distribution from 0.1 to 500 micrometer. This equipment has a few advantages all its own. Robust laser diode and innovative photocells optimize the precision of static light scattering and give AS-2011 a longer operational lifetime. Patented optical bench uproots light path deviation, one of the major technical problems in the industry of particle size analysis. User-friendly program and advanced algorism bring accuracy and repeatability qualification to International Norm ISO13320-1 Particle Size Analysis - Laser Diffraction Methods. AS-2011 has become the most reliable and cost-effective LPSA and being widely used in Particle Characterization.By AimSizerhttp://www.aimsizer.com

What particle is emitted when Ra221 decays to Rn217?

Radon has two protons less than radium; and there is a total difference of 4 nucleons, so it is obvious that it would emit an alpha particle (which takes away 4 nucleons, 2 of them protons). Note: I didn't check whether this reaction actually occurs, or even whether these isotopes actually exist - I just did the subtraction.

Which particle is associated with beta decay?

The atomic nucleus can emit beta particles (beta radiation). A neutron emits a beta particle when it decays into a proton, and anti-neutrino, and an electron (which becomes the beta particle).


Why is it impossible for helium or hydrogen to emit an alpha particle?

Because an alpha particle is bigger than a helium or hydrogen atom.
