Chapter 19, Problem 19.31SP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

We have to explain why gamma rays do not alter the atomic number of an atom

Concept Introduction:

Atoms with unstable nuclei are constantly changing as a result of the imbalance of energy within the nucleus. They constantly try to come to a stable state.This is possible when the nuclei of unstable isotopes spontaneously disintegratein a process known as radioactive decay. The massless radiations that are produced during this decay are called gamma rays. This leads to an atom with lower energy that is more stable and expulsion of high amounts of energy known as gamma radiations.

To explain:

Why gamma rays do not alter the atomic number of an atom?
