The neutrons aren't really relevant, since we don't know what the mass of the radium nucleus was and the element is determined strictly by the number of protons anyway. Radium has an atomic number of 88; losing 4 protons would make the atomic number 84, which is polonium. (This is probably really a two-step process: radium -> radon -> polonium, where each step is an alpha decay.)
When an isotope in the rock decays, a new isotope or element is formed. This process is known as radioactive decay, where the original isotope changes into a different element or isotope through the emission of particles or energy.
Radium is a chemical element Polonium is a chemical element Those two were discovered by Marie Curie
Radium undergoes radioactive decay, specifically alpha decay, to become radon. Radium-226 (226Ra) will undergo alpha decay releasing that alpha particle, which is a helium-4 nucleus, to become radon-222 (222Rn).
she made a new element. the element was radium. radium is used in matirials such as lipstick!!!!!!!! She found the isolation of poloniam and radium and used radium for x-rays which helped in a war.
If atoms of same element combine, we say that element is existing in its real state (or simply a molecule of that element is formed). If two atoms of different elements combine, a compound is formed.

Surely, this is a question to homework... Yes? Well... I'm not quite sure myself, but I believe a new element is formed.
Element 118 finishes out period 7 at group 18. Radium is in group 2. So, following the trend, the next element under radium would be element 120.
Tritium decay to helium-3.

When radium (Ra) emits an alpha particle, it transforms into radon (Rn). This process is also known as alpha decay, where an alpha particle is released from the nucleus of the radium atom, resulting in the formation of a new element.
Sodium-24 would be formed if magnesium-24 is bombarded with a neutron and then ejects a proton. The neutron is absorbed to form magnesium-25, which then decays by emitting a proton to become sodium-24.
