Alpha emission means that an alpha particle (2 protons + 2 neutrons) are emitted, so the original nucleus has 2 protons and 2 neutrons more.

What is the nuclear equation of positron emission of ca-37?

The nuclear equation for positron emission of Ca-37 is: 37Ca -> 37K + e^+ + v + γ This reaction involves the emission of a positron (e^+), resulting in the conversion of a calcium-37 nucleus to a potassium-37 nucleus, along with a neutrino (v) and a gamma ray (γ).


Why does the presence of gamma rays not affect how a nuclear equation of alpha is balance?

Gamma rays do not have mass or charge, so they do not contribute to the balance of a nuclear equation that involves the emission of an alpha particle. The alpha particle carries away the mass and charge necessary to balance the nuclear equation.

What is the nuclear equation for the decay of Am 250 by alpha emission?

My book does not list 250Am, nor the product 246Np. Beta decay would probably be preferred in this case over alpha.250Am --> 246Np + 4He

Write a balanced nuclear equation for the radioactive decay of a boron-10 plus a neutron results in the formation of another element and the release of an alpha particle?

Boron-10 (^10B) undergoing neutron capture forms boron-11 (^11B), followed by the emission of an alpha particle (helium-4 atom). The balanced nuclear equation would be: ^10B + n → ^11B + ^4He
