sustained my efforts at all of this
project work.
CHEMISRTY
ALPHA DECAY
Alpha decay or a-decay is a type of radioactive decay in
which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle and
therby transform(or 'decay')into an atom with a mass
number 4 less and atomic number 2 less.For
example,uranium -238 decaying through 'a' particle
emmision to form Thorium-234 can be expressed as
Because an alph aprticle in the same a the neucleus of
a helium-4 atom consisting of two protons and two
neutrons and thus having mass number 4 and atomic
number 2-this can also be written as
e electrons.The convention is not meant to imply that
the nuclei necessarily occur in neutral atom.Aplha decay
typically occurs in the heaviest nuclides.In theory i
BETA DECAY
In nuclear physics,beta decay(b-decay)is a type of
radioactive decay in which a beta particle (an
electron or positron)is emitted from an atomic
nucleus.Beta decay is a process which allows the
atom to obtain the optimal ratio of proton and
neutron.
Beta decay is mediated by the weak force.There are
two types:beta minus and beta plus.In the case of
beta decay that produces an electron emissio,it is
