Write out the decay equation and draw a decay diagram for the decay of 77mBr to 77Br. If the mass of "7mBr is 76.921494 u and 77B is 76.921380 u, calculate the total energy of decay. Hopefully, this is starting to get a bit easier-the decay equation is 77mp 35 Br 35Br+Y

a) Mrs. Price's son, Liam is currently working as a boilermaker at the Darlington Nuclear Power plant. He is working with Uranium-237 which has a half-life of 13.75 days. What mass of an initial sample of 567.5g of uranium-237 would remain after 56 days? b) Write the complete reaction for the decay of Po-210 if it undergoes 2 consecutive alpha decay followed by a beta decay followed by another alpha decay.
Radon (222 g/mol) is a naturally occurring radioactive gas found in the ground and in building materials. It is easily inhaled and emits alpha particles when it decays. Cumulative radon exposure is a significant risk factor for lung cancer.

Identification and Characterization of Unstable and Stable Nuclei Nuclear stability can in general be predicted based on the following considerations: • Nuclei with 84 protons or more are unstable. • Nuclei containing a magic number of protons and/or neutrons tend to be stable. • Stable nuclei often contain even numbers of protons and/or neutrons. These factors are reflected in the given graph (Figure 1). which shows the valley of stability as a function of number of neutrons and protons.
