∙ 9y agoThe process of changing from one element to another element is called as nuclear transmutation. Transmutation occurs only when a nuclear reaction is involved.

One element placed within another is called?
nesting
When an element is combined to another element the substance is what?
When one element is combined with another element, a chemical compound results. The elements are chemically bonded together to make this compound.
What is the only way to change one element into a different element?
through radioactive decay
What are the different forms called in an element that has forms with different numbers of neautrons?
Atoms of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons; the different possible versions of each element are called isotopes. For example, the most common isotope of hydrogen has no neutrons at all; there's also a hydrogen isotope called deuterium, with one neutron, and another, tritium, with two neutrons.
What kind of reaction can change one element into another?
There are only 2 ways that can happen, fission or fusion. Fusion is when two atoms combine to become a larger atom (almost exclusively two hydrogen atoms becoming 1 helium atom). Fission is much more common and is present in all radioactive elements.
Does plutonium change its element when melted if so to what?
No. Melting does not change one element into another.
What property must be change to change an element into another element?
to make one element a different element, all you need to do is have a different number of protons
Is heat required to change one element into another?
yes
In which process is an element of matter changed into a completely different element?
It's called transmutation. There are two types of transmutation. Natural transmutation is when an element naturally changes into another element. Artificial transmutation is when an element is forced to change into another element, usually done in a laboratory setting.
The nuclear reaction that changes one element into another element is called a?
transmutation - same as the alchemists called it.
What kind of decay can change one element to another kind of element?
That would be radioactive decay.
If the number of protons in an atom changes a new element is formed?
The changing of one element into another, called transmutation, involves a change in the nucleus of the atom. And the number of protons in the nucleus must change for one element to become another one. It is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom that determines what element that atom is, and only a change in the proton count will herald the change of one element into another. The neutron count may or may not change in transmutation, but be assured that the number of protons will change.
One element placed within another is called?
nesting
Does the number of outermost electrons in an atom change from one isotope of an element to another?
No.
What is a change of one state to another?
The change from one state of matter to another is called a phase transition.
How can radioactive decay change one element into another?
When one element goes through radio active decay, it looses some alpha , beta particles and also neutrons so considering those things we should reduce number of alpha , beta and also neutrons lost by the element. from that we have to decide the element which occur after radio active decay.
What are the people who choose their leaders called?
What is one culture adapting an element of another culture called
