Chapter 25.8, Problem 3.2ACP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The process by which decomposition of Rb-87 occurs has to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

  • In alpha decay, there will be lose of He nucleus in which mass number decreases by four and atomic number decreases by two.
  • In beta decay, there will be a lose of electron from nucleus (neutron turns into proton): there will be no change in mass number and atomic number increases by one.
  • In gamma emission, there will not be any change in, either atomic number or mass number.
  • A positron is like an electron with a positive charge and during positron emission a proton changes into a neutron and excess positive charge is emitted.
  • Electron capture converts a proton to a neutron.
