90Th232 undergoes alpha decay to form 88Ra228.
Remember, in alpha decay, a helium nuclei is emitted, comprising two protons and two neutrons. As a result, the atomic number goes down by 2, and the Atomic Mass number goes down by 4.

The possible products of the alpha decay of uranium-238 are thorium-234 and helium-4. During alpha decay, the uranium nucleus releases an alpha particle (helium nucleus) and transforms into thorium-234.
The balanced equation for the alpha decay of thorium-229, Th-229, is: Th-229 -> Ra-225 + He-4 This equation shows that a thorium-229 nucleus undergoes alpha decay to form a radium-225 nucleus and a helium-4 particle.
The decay product of uranium 238 by alpha disintegration (not beta or gamma) is thorium 234.
It loses mass.
When bismuth-212 undergoes alpha decay, it becomes thallium-208.
Beryllium-9 is a stable isotope.
If seaborgium undergoes alpha decay, it would create rutherfordium as the resulting element.
When uranium undergoes alpha decay, it emits an alpha particle (which is equivalent to a helium nucleus, ( ^4_2He )), resulting in a decrease of its atomic number by 2 and its mass number by 4. For example, if uranium-238 (( ^{238}{92}U )) undergoes alpha decay, it transforms into thorium-234 (( ^{234}{90}Th )). Thus, the notation for the thorium isotope produced is ( ^{234}_{90}Th ).
Bismuth-214 produces Polonium-214 by beta- decay. It also produces Thallium-210 by alpha decay, though at a much smaller percentage.
Product of radioactive decay 42He is an alpha particle
The main product of 23191Pa undergoing alpha decay is 22789Ac (Actinium-227). This occurs when a helium nucleus (an alpha particle) is emitted from the nucleus of 23191Pa, resulting in a decrease in atomic number by 2 and a decrease in mass number by 4.
Polonium-218 undergoes alpha decay to form lead-214, which then undergoes beta decay to form bismuth-214.
No. Decay is the process, radiation is the product.
bismuth 210 decays by beta decay to polonium 210 that decays by alpha decay to lead 206
Uranium 238 is transformed in thorium 234 by alpha decay.
When astatine-218 undergoes alpha decay, it emits a helium nucleus (alpha particle) and transforms into the new element, polonium-214. This process reduces the atomic number of the nucleus by 2 and the mass number by 4.
