Chapter 25, Problem 17PS

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The particle emitted, and their equation has to be written.

Concept Introduction:

In the radioactive decay process the unstable isotopes loses their energy by emitting radiation in order to attain stable species. It is converted in to stable isotopes by emitting positron ${}_{+1}^0\beta$ , gamma ${}_0^0\gamma$ , Beta $\beta$, alpha ${}_2^{4}He$ and or by electron capture ${}_{-1}^{0}e$ .

Isotopes: The two elements with same atomic number but with different mass number are considered as isotopes of each other.

(b)
