Tritium, 13H, cannot decay by alpha decay because it only has one proton, and an alpha particle has two protons, along with its two neutrons. The lightest nuclide capable of alpha decay is lithium-5, 35Li, decaying by alpha decay to ordinary hydrogen, 11H.
13H decays by beta- decay to 23He, a rare form of helium, which is then stable.

Beta radiation is made up of what?
There are 3 different types of radioactive decay. alpha decay, beta decay and gamma decay. alpha decay is composed of a helium nuclei, beta decay emit either electrons or positrons, and finally gamma decay in which high energy "rays" of photons. A positron is a positively charged electron (antimatter twin of the electron). See the natural decay series of U-238 and others to see which daughters emit beta to alpha or gamma. there is also the neutrino. I cant say we really know that much about it but basically it helps satisfy the law of conservation.
Two objects cant occuy the same place at the same time but two can?
Two objects can occupy the same place at the same time if they are comprised of different dimensions, such as a particle and a wave. Quantum superposition allows for this phenomenon.
Why cant you date an old stone tablet by doing carbon-14?
Carbon-14 dating is not effective for very old stone tablets because the method is only accurate up to about 50,000 years due to the half-life of carbon-14 is about 5,730 years. Stone tablets are most likely much older than that, so other dating methods like luminescence dating are used instead.
Why cant thermal radiation move through space by conduction or convection?
Because in space there are no particles (this is called a vacuum), however conduction and convection require particles to work eg. solids, liquids and gases have particle arrangements. So thermal radiation has to travel through space via radiation as space is a vacuum and particle-less.
Why cant beta particles penetrate very far into solids?
Beta particles are high-energy, fast-moving electrons emitted from radioactive decay. They interact with matter through collisions with atoms, losing energy as they penetrate deeper into a material. Due to their charge and small size, they are easily deflected by the positive nuclei in solids, resulting in a short range of penetration compared to more penetrating forms of radiation like gamma rays.
Radioactivity is caused by?
... the decay of unstable atoms. elements are made from protons neutrons and orbiting electrons. The number of protons in the atom determines what the element actually is. Some elements or isotopes of elements are atomically unstable, they cant hold themselves together so break apart. The atom may break into smaller atoms (which means the substance changes from one element to others) - these may then contiue to break apart. During this process of decay, another very small part of the atom may also break off. This can either be a package of two protons and two neutrons (alpha particle / alpha radiation), an electron on its own (beta particle/radiation), or a massless package of electromagnetic radiation (gamma radiation).

you cant
How do you get into PTR in AQWorlds?
You cant Player Test Realm was just like Alpha Test.
Strengths and weaknesses in a solid particle?
the weakness of a solid particle is that it could be too heavy and you cant mould it
What is a particle picture showing a lemonade solution?
You cant. lemonade is a soft drink, not a molecule
Why electromagnetic wave not undergo superposition to produce inteference patterns?
I think you may find because of wave particle duality. Light is a wave and a particle and you cant cancel out particles.
How do you fix a alpha trooper drum after you take it apart?
you cant it is basicly impossible i know because i tried and no sucsess
Why cant individual particle of sugar be seen?
Simply because the individual molecules are too small to be seen without a microscope.
