In the case of Rn-222, which is the "isotope of concern" because it occurs naturally, it decays as follows: 222Rn => 218Po + He+2 In this equation, we see the radon isotope Rn-222 emit an alpha particle (the helium nucleus) and undergo a transformation to become the polonium isotope, Po-218.

What is the balanced nuclear equation for the reaction in which zirconium-97 undergoes beta decay?
The equation for the beta decay of 137Cs:55137Cs --> 56137Ba + -10e where the e is a negative beta particle or electron.
Are radioactive reactions redox reaction?
Radioactive reaction is a red-ox reaction. This is a nuclear decay.

Which represents the balanced nuclear reaction for the beta minus decay of Co-60?
In the beta minus decay of cobalt-60 (Co-60), a neutron in the nucleus is transformed into a proton, resulting in the emission of a beta particle (electron) and an antineutrino. The balanced nuclear reaction can be represented as: [ ^{60}{27}\text{Co} \rightarrow ^{60}{28}\text{Ni} + e^- + \bar{\nu} ] Here, Co-60 decays into nickel-60 (Ni-60), with the emission of a beta particle (e^-) and an antineutrino (ν̄).

yes
Is conversion by radioactive decay a chemical reaction?
No. It is a nuclear reaction - radioactive disintegration.
Why radioactive decay is always first order reaction?
This is because only one isotope decay.

How nuclear decay rates different from chemical reaction rates?
nuclear decay rates take more time and chemical reaction rates could happen fast.
