Question
Chapter 3, Problem 19P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The three types of radioactivity should be ranked as per their charge and mass.
Concept introduction:
Radioactivity is the process by which the nucleus of an unstable atom loses energy by releasing radiation like a-, ß or ?- particles. An element having such an unstable nucleus is considered as radioactive. The decaying nucleus is known as the parent radionuclide or isotope and the process generates at least one daughter radionuclide.
