The atom that results from nuclear decay is called the daughter atom. The element of the daughter atom would be called the daughter element. The atom that decayed is called the parent.
true
Parent and daughter in chemistry refer to radioactive decay, where a radioactive isotope of an element decays into another. For example, carbon-14 will beta-decay into nitrogen-14. The half-life associated with that particular process is about 5,700 years. The "parent" is carbon-14 and the "daughter" is nitrogen-14.

After an element's nucleus decays, it becomes one or more different elements. The type of decay determines what the new element(s) will be. The type of decay the nucleus of an element will undergo depends on the particular isotope of the particular element in question. For example, alpha decay results in an new element which has 2 less protons and 2 less neutrons (decrease in atomic number of 2 and decrease in mass number of 4). Fission results in an element splitting into two new elements of various sizes, accompanied by the release of other random particles. The two new "daughter" element's masses plus the masses of the other released particles will add up (approximately) to the mass of the original element. There are many other types of decay which produce different decay products.

The alpha decay of americium-241 produce neptunium-237.
The atom that results from nuclear decay is called the daughter atom. The element of the daughter atom would be called the daughter element. The atom that decayed is called the parent.

False.
Parent and daughter in chemistry refer to radioactive decay, where a radioactive isotope of an element decays into another. For example, carbon-14 will beta-decay into nitrogen-14. The half-life associated with that particular process is about 5,700 years. The "parent" is carbon-14 and the "daughter" is nitrogen-14.
No. In both the cases the element would definitely change. As alpha particle comes out then the new element would have two less in atomic number where as in beta particle decay the new element will have one higher in atomic number.
