Someone please help with this :( Answer the following parts using the video: a. The reporter measured the radioactivity of three different objects. Which was the "most dramatic" (most radioactive), according to the Geiger counter? b. Potassium-40 is the specific radioactive isotope of potassium. It undergoes both beta decay and electron capture. Write the balanced nuclear equations for the beta decay AND the electron capture of potassium-40. c. One of the radioactive components of granite is thorium-224 that will undergo alpha decay until it becomes stable lead-208. How many total alpha particles will be produced by one thorium-224 atom decaying to lead-208? ****This is not graded**** https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8wKbpsw-OE
