The rate of decay of a radioactive element is measured by its half-life, which is the time it takes for half of a sample of the element to decay. This measurement is used to determine the stability or instability of the element and to predict its rate of decay over time.
The decay equation you provided is incomplete. Please provide the complete decay equation for further clarification.
parent element
Enriched Uranium and following it is Plutonium
A neutron changes to a proton.
daughter element
There is no such thing as delta particles in nuclear decay.
The relationship between time and the decay of radioactive substances is shown in a graph of radioactive decay by demonstrating how the amount of radioactive material decreases over time. This decay occurs at a consistent rate, known as the half-life, which is the time it takes for half of the radioactive material to decay. The graph typically shows a gradual decrease in the amount of radioactive substance as time progresses, following an exponential decay curve.
Damage to the stomach, damage to the esophagus, and other organs, tooth decay, throat cancer, and a diminishing ability to hold food down.
daughter element
Radioactive decay has the following properties: 1. No element can completely decay. 2. The number of atoms decaying in a particular period is proportional to the number of atoms present in the beginning of that period. 3. Estimate of radioactive decay can be made by half life and decay constant of a radioactive element.
bacilli bacteria (Bacillus anthracis) causes anthrax in sheep and humans, and (lactobacillus) causes tooth decay and is also an ingredient in yogurt. Bacilli can cause tetanus (lockjaw) typhoid feaver, tuberculosis, and diphtheria (Milady's Standard Cosmetology ~source)
