What is the equation for lifetime of a particle?
The lifetime of a particle (τ) is related to its decay constant (λ) through the equation τ = 1/λ. The decay constant is inversely proportional to the half-life of the particle.

What is a nuclear equation for technetium decay?
The equation for the beta decay of 165Ta is: 73165Ta --> 72165Hf + 10e + ve where the e is a positive beta particle or positron.
What is the equation for the transmutation that occurs when an alpha particle combines with an oxygen-16 atom emitting a proton?
The transmutation equation for this process is: (α) ²He^4 + (O) 8^16 -> (N) 7^15 + (H) 1^1. In this reaction, an alpha particle and an oxygen-16 atom combine to form a nitrogen-15 atom and a proton, while releasing energy.

What is the equation for alpha decay of mercury 201?
The equation for alpha decay of mercury-201 is: ^201Hg -> ^197Au + ^4He This means that mercury-201 decays into gold-197 and helium-4 by emitting an alpha particle.
When an iodine 131 atom decays by emitting a beta particle and a gamma particle it forms?
When an iodine-131 atom decays by emitting a beta particle and a gamma particle, it forms xenon-131. The beta particle is an electron, while the gamma particle is a high-energy photon. This decay process helps iodine-131 become a stable element, xenon-131.
What can nuclear transmutation result from?
A radioactive atom can decay spontaneously, at a random moment. A transmutation can also be the result of an atom capturing some other particle, or nucleus - which can make certain types of atoms unstable.
What are the equations for each of the following radioactive decay reactions alpha emissions by thorium 228 and beta emissions by aluminum 28?
The equation for alpha decay of thorium-228 is 228Th -> 224Ra + 4He, where thorium-228 decays into radium-224 by emitting an alpha particle (helium nucleus). The equation for beta decay of aluminum-28 is 28Al -> 28Si + e + v, where aluminum-28 decays into silicon-28 by emitting a beta particle (electron) and an antineutrino.
