(a)
Interpretation:
The way by which
Concept introduction:
The radioactive decay is a process which involves the emission of radiation by an unstable atomic nucleus. The atomic nucleus loses it energy during radioactive decay. The process of radioactive decay is spontaneous.
(b)
Interpretation:
The way by which atomic number and mass number of daughter nuclei compare with the original nuclei after a beta particle emission is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The radioactive decay is a process which involves the emission of radiation by an unstable atomic nucleus. The atomic nucleus loses it energy during radioactive decay. The process of radioactive decay is spontaneous.
(c)
Interpretation:
The way by which atomic number and mass number of daughter nuclei compare with the original nuclei after an electron is captured is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The radioactive decay is a process which involves the emission of radiation by an unstable atomic nucleus. The atomic nucleus loses it energy during radioactive decay. The process of radioactive decay is spontaneous.
(d)
Interpretation:
The way by which atomic number and mass number of daughter nuclei compare with the original nuclei after a gamma ray emission is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The radioactive decay is a process which involves the emission of radiation by an unstable atomic nucleus. The atomic nucleus loses it energy during radioactive decay. The process of radioactive decay is spontaneous.
(e)
Interpretation:
The way by which atomic number and mass number of daughter nuclei compare with the original nuclei after a positron emission is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The radioactive decay is a process which involves the emission of radiation by an unstable atomic nucleus. The atomic nucleus loses it energy during radioactive decay. The process of radioactive decay is spontaneous.
