Q950
what form of decay does not change the atomic number of them decaying atom?
Radioactive decay
Alpha decay is one example type of radioactive decay, in which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle , and thereby transforms (or 'decays') into an atom with a mass number 4 less and atomic number 2 less.
00
Q950
what form of decay does not change the atomic number of them decaying atom?
Radioactive decay
Many other types of decays are possible.
00
Q950
what form of decay does not change the atomic number of them decaying atom?
Radioactive decay
Radioactive decay, also known as nuclear decay or radioactivity, is the process by which a nucleus of an unstable atom loses energy by emitting particles of ionizing radiation .
00
Q950
what form of decay does not change the atomic number of them decaying atom?
Radioactive decay
A material that spontaneously emits this kind of radiation — which includes the emission of energetic alpha particles , beta particles , and gamma rays — is considered radioactive.
00
Q950
what form of decay does not change the atomic number of them decaying atom?
Radioactive decay
There are many different types of radioactive decay (see table below).
00
Q950
what form of decay does not change the atomic number of them decaying atom?
Radioactive decay
A decay, or loss of energy, results when an atom with one type of nucleus, called the parent radionuclide , transforms to an atom with a nucleus in a different state, or to a different nucleus containing different numbers of protons and neutrons .
