Beta- decay result in an increase of atomic number by one, with no resulting change in the Atomic Mass number.
There is a change in mass, since an electron and an electron anti-neutrino is emitted, and also because the neutron changes into a proton, but the atomic mass number, per se, does not change.
That depends on the nuclear decay type. For gamma decay, the identity does NOT change, but for alpha and beta, it does.
Yes, it is. Nuclear decay is a process that an unstable atom goes through to lose energy and move toward a more stable state. (It may take more than one decay.) In nuclear decay, the nucleus undergoes a change by releasing a particle or particles and electromagnetic energy. Links are provided to related Wikipedia articles and related questions.
it means 'We will have to change or add to what we know if it doesn't work soon'
transmutation of elements... the thing alchemists sought to do
Leave it alone. The next time it gets a radio signal lock it will set itself. If it sets wrong, verify and if necessary correct the time zone.
Elements are created that differ from the reactants.
Atomic radius generally decreases across a period from left to right. This is due to the increasing nuclear charge pulling the electrons closer to the nucleus, making the atomic size smaller.
Yes, properties change according to pattern along a period. For example- atomic size decreases along a period. This is due to increasing nuclear charge.Yes, most of the properties change according to a pattern. Atomic radii, electronegativity changes according to a pattern. But properties like ionization energy does not change according to a pattern.

The atomic change that produces the largest amount of energy is a nuclear atomic change. This is when an atom is hit with another elementary particles and releases a large amount of energy.
Atomic nuclei are changed by nuclear reactions or radioactive disintegration.
The number of neutrons has no influence on the number of the atomic number. Only protons do, and they only change in nuclear chemistry.
The term nuclear reaction is a general one, and it refers to any change in atomic nuclei. There are a lot of different ones (nuclear changes) that qualify, so let's look at some. A nuclear reaction could be a nuclear decay event where a single atomic nucleus undergoes a change. Alpha decay, beta decay, spontaneous fission and even gamma emission are nuclear reactions. Additionally, a nuclear reaction could refer to the interaction of a subatomic particle and an atomic nucleus, like neutron capture in nuclear chain reactions. Further, nuclear fusion, which is constantly going on in our sun, is also considered a nuclear reaction because lighter atomic nuclei are fused together to make heavier ones. As there are a number of "flavors" of nuclear reactions, we leave a reader a variety of options to choose from when we apply this term. It may help to be more specific, depending on the way this term is used.
A plus exponent signifies that the atomic radius decreases as you move across a period due to an increase in the effective nuclear charge, pulling the electrons closer to the nucleus. This results in stronger attraction between the nucleus and the outermost electrons, making the atomic radius smaller.
Along a period, nuclear charge increases. hence, atomic radius decreases.
Along a period, nuclear charge increases. hence, atomic radius decreases.
The atomic radius generally decreases across a period of the periodic table from left to right due to increased nuclear charge pulling electrons closer to the nucleus. This results in a stronger attractive force, leading to a smaller atomic radius.
