Eventually, yes. It will take a while in the cold water at that depth, but it will return whence it came. Brass and bronze fittings will survive a long time after the steel is gone, and the ship's screws (propellers) are made of materials that resist the effects of seawater well. This isn't something that will happen in a thousand years. It will take longer than that. But think about it on a geologic scale. Mother Earth will reclaim Titanic eventually.

What are the different types of decay that can occur in various materials?

There are several types of decay that can occur in materials, including physical decay (such as wear and tear), chemical decay (such as rusting or corrosion), and biological decay (such as rotting or decomposition).


What is an energetic electron from decomposed neutron?

An energetic electron from the decay of a neutron is known as a beta particle. Neutrons can decay into a proton, electron, and an antineutrino. The beta particle carries away some of the excess energy released during this process.


What are the different types of radioactive decay and how do they differ from each other?

There are three main types of radioactive decay: alpha decay, beta decay, and gamma decay. Alpha decay involves the emission of an alpha particle, which is a helium nucleus consisting of two protons and two neutrons. This type of decay reduces the atomic number of the nucleus by 2 and the mass number by 4. Beta decay involves the emission of a beta particle, which can be either an electron (beta-minus decay) or a positron (beta-plus decay). Beta decay changes the atomic number of the nucleus by 1 but does not significantly affect the mass number. Gamma decay involves the emission of gamma rays, which are high-energy photons. Gamma decay does not change the atomic number or mass number of the nucleus but helps the nucleus reach a more stable energy state. These types of decay differ in the particles emitted and the changes they cause to the nucleus.


The least energetic of the forms of radioactive decay is ______?

alpha decay


Do diamonds decay over time?

No, diamonds do not decay over time. They are one of the hardest substances on Earth and are extremely resistant to decay or deterioration.

Will titanic be dissolved by the saltwater?

The saltwater will play only a small role in the decay of the Titanic wreck. Rusticles- the formations left behind as bacteria eat away at the ship's hull- are engulfing and destroying the wreck. The bacteria thrives on the iron in the steel plating, and is gradually weakening the hull. Titanic will not dissolve, but rather collapse from the immense strain of its own decks.
