I'm pretty sure its alpha.
What else can I help you with?
How is the radioactive decay of Krypton different from the radioactive decay of Americium?
The radioactive decay of americium 241 is by alpha disintegration; the disintegration of radioactive krypton isotopes is by beta particles emission.
Who discovered radioactive decay in 1898?
ernest Rutherford _______________________________________________________________ Radioactive decay was actually discovered in 1896 by Henri Bacquerel. Ernest Rutherford discovered the formula of radioactive decay (Such as the falk-life, differences between alpha and beta decay and even how the elements become new elements after the decay), but he did not discover the radioactive decay himself.
What is the radioactive decay law?
The rate of decay (activity) of a radioactive isotope is proportional to the number of atoms of the isotope present.
What is necessary for you to be able to explain what happens during radioactive decay?
To fully explain radioactive decay you need quantum mechanics.
Use the term radioactive decay in a sentence?
"The radioactive decay of certain unstable isotopes is used to calculate the age of objects."
What forms new elements?
radioactive decay
What are two different forms of radioactive decay?
Alpha and beta decays.
Alpha decay and beta decay are two forms of radioactive decay that cause .?
Transmutation, which is the change of atoms from one element to another.
What is the source of heat in the Earth interior?
The decay of radioactive isotopes.The decay of radioactive isotopes.The decay of radioactive isotopes.The decay of radioactive isotopes.
When radioactive isotopes break down into other elements the process is called?
radioactive decay
Heaviest element that is highly radioactive?
The heaviest element that is highly radioactive is Ununoctium, which has an atomic number of 118.
When a radioactive nucleus decays and forms a new nucleus is the new nucleus always radioactive?
No. A stable nucleus can form. If the new nucleus is radioactive, then it will contiue to decay until a non radioactive nucleus is attained.
How is the radioactive decay of Krypton different from the radioactive decay of Americium?
The radioactive decay of americium 241 is by alpha disintegration; the disintegration of radioactive krypton isotopes is by beta particles emission.
What term indicates the process in which unstable nuclide release radiation?
If it is related to Nuclear studies, then the answer would be fusion.
What is the most radioactive of the halogen elements?
1. astatine is a halogen that is radioactive.
What is the daughter product in the beta decay of 144Ce?
The daughter product in the beta decay of 144Ce is 144Pr, which stands for promethium. Promethium is a radioactive element that forms as a result of the beta decay of cerium-144.
What is lost during radioactive decay?
Decay energy is the energy that has been freed during radioactive decay. When radioactive decay is ongoing it drops off some energy by means of discharging radiation.
