The 3 things that can happen during radioactive decay is the 3 parts of decay: Alpha decay, Beta decay, and Gamma decay. In alpha decay, which is the weakest part of decay, it has a positive helium neuclus(2 protons and 2 neutrons), and the particles will burn your skin, but can be easily stopped by a peice of paper. This is the most ionising as the helium nucleus can take electrons from other atoms and make them unstable. This can give rise to cancers as it distorts cells. In Beta decay (an electron or a positron) is emitted. In the case of electron emission, it is referred to as "beta minus" (β−). It can be stopped by 3mm of aluminum. Gamma decay, which is the strongest, can only be stopped by 3cm of lead. It has electromagnetic waves, it contains the most energy, and therefore is the most penetrating, but normally it just passes straight through the human body. Radioactive decay can be very harmful, and its best to stay away. This question has been anwsered by Rae-Ann Salisbury.
An alpha particle
The final product is not radioactive.
Actinium is a natural chemical element, radioactive; actinium is a decay product of uranium.
The final result of radioactive decay is a stable daughter product that is no longer radioactive. This process involves the emission of radiation in the form of alpha or beta particles, as well as gamma rays, until the original radioactive isotope reaches a stable state.
If it is related to Nuclear studies, then the answer would be fusion.

The product.
The decay product ratio is the ratio of the amount of a specific decay product to the amount of the parent isotope in a radioactive decay chain. It is used to determine the relative contribution of different decay pathways in the decay of a radioactive substance.

The daughter product of nuclear decay is a new element or isotope that is formed as a result of the original radioactive material decaying.
True. The offspring nuclide is the resulting nucleus that is produced as part of the radioactive decay process.
