Is transmutation of elements and nuclear transmutation are same?

Transmutation of elements generally refers to changing one element into another by altering the number of protons in the nucleus, while nuclear transmutation specifically refers to inducing such changes through nuclear reactions (such as bombarding a nucleus with particles). In this sense, nuclear transmutation is a type of transmutation of elements.


Does transmutation occur in nuclear fission?

Nuclear fission splits an atom of one element into two atoms of two different elements. This is not usually called transmutation. However, fission is accompanied by subsequent steps, which usually include transmutation.

What atomic particle must undergo a change in number during every transmutation reaction?

Nuclear transmutation happens in most (not all) types of nuclear decay. In transmutation, the number of neutrons might remain the same, but the number of protons certainly does not, because the number of protons determines the atomic number of the atom, and transmutation requires a change in atomic number. Since the number of electrons of an unionized atom is the same as the number of protons, the number of electrons would probably change too, but this is not technically a requirement of transformation.I want to point out also that the individual particles usually do not change in transformation (though this can happen), just their number.
