An alpha particle is emitted when Pu-240 decays to U-236. It consists of two protons and two neutrons and is commonly emitted in alpha decay processes.
240Pu decays to 236U by emitting an alpha particle. You can tell this by looking at the difference in atomic mass. 240 minus 236 is 4, and that is the mass of an alpha particle. You can also tell this by looking at a chart of the nuclides. See the related link below for an example from Brookhaven National Laboratories.
- intermediate in the preparation of plutonium 238 - in the instruments for the detection of high energy neutrons - possible use in the future as material for nuclear weapons - possible use in the future as nuclear fuel

240 mL is about 0.063 US gallons.
