What else can I help you with?
Particles or waves given off by atoms undergoing nuclear decay produce?
Produce a large amount of heat and energy which is utilized for many purposes
Is splitting of atoms a form of nuclear decay?
No, the splitting of atoms is nuclear fission.
Which of the following is not produced by nuclear decay A Alpha particles B Beta particles C Gamma rays D Delta particles?
There is no such thing as delta particles in nuclear decay.
Is fusion nuclear decay or nuclear synthesis?
Fusion is nuclear synthesis, combining atoms of lesser mass into atoms of greater mass. Decay is reducing the mass of larger (unstable) atoms to form atoms of lesser mass.
Why does a radioactive decay cause a rise in temperature?
Emitted particles transfer energy to surrounding atoms when they collide with them

What are reactants and products in nuclear decay equations?
In nuclear decay equations, reactants are the original unstable nucleus undergoing decay, while products are the resulting stable or daughter nucleus and any emitted particles such as alpha particles, beta particles, or gamma rays. The reactants are on the left side of the equation, and the products are on the right side.
How long do atoms typically endure before undergoing decay or transformation?
Atoms can typically endure for billions of years before undergoing decay or transformation.
Is splitting of atoms a form of nuclear decay?
No, the splitting of atoms is nuclear fission.
How do you do nuclear equations?
To write nuclear equations, determine the reactants and products involved in a nuclear reaction. Balance the mass numbers and atomic numbers on both sides of the equation to maintain nuclear conservation laws. Ensure that the sum of the mass numbers and atomic numbers are equal on both sides.
What is the release of nuclear particles and energy called?
If atoms are radioactive, they can emit alpha,beta, or gamma radiation. The energy of the particles or rays emitted depends on the exact isotopes concerned, and varies widely from one to another.

What is it called when atoms are unstable and undergo a nuclear decay?
radioactive decay

Atoms are changed into other atoms?
Yes, there are several methods for Nuclear transmutation a few of them being Nuclear Spallation, Alpha Decay, Beta Decay, and Antimatter annihilation.
Can atoms change back from one another?
In a nuclear decay sequence it is possible for heavier atoms to decay to a lighter element.
