What is the nuclear decay equation for hydrogen 3?
The equation for the beta decay of 3H is: 13H --> 23He + -10e where -10e represents a negative beta particle or electron.
Nuclear radiation ranked from the greatest mass to the least mass is a- Xray gamma ray beta particle b- Xray beta particle gamma ray c- Alpha particle beta particle gamma ray d Beta alpha gamma?
aplha, beta, gamma
How do the mass and size of an alpha particle compare with mass and size of beta particle?
The mass and size of an alpha particle compare with the masa and size of beta particle in the sense that the alpha particle is significantly larger in both size and mass that the beta and gamma particles. This is why it is called the alpha particle.
Which has the largest mass alpha particle gamma ray positron or beta particle?
The alpha particle is much more massive than a beta particle. A beta particle is an electron, which has very little mass. An alpha particle is a helium nucleus, and consists of two protons and two neutrons.
Which particle is emitted when an atom OF 85Kr spontaneously decays?
a beta particle
What is the product of radioactive decay symbolized by called?
A gamma wave...
What is the nuclear decay equation for copper 64?
Cu decays by either negative or positive beta emission. The equation for the negative beta decay of 64Cu is: 2964Cu --> 3064Zn + -10e where -10e represents a negative beta particle or electron. The equation for the positive beta decay of 64Cu is: 2964Cu --> 2864Ni + 10e where 10e represents a positive beta particle or positron.
What is the nuclear decay equation for rubidium?
The equation for the beta decay of 86Rb:3786Rb --> 3886Sr+ -10e where the -10e represents a beta particle or electron.
What is the nuclear decay equation for potassium-40?
There are three beta decay modes for 40K, and so three equations. The equation for the negative beta decay of 40K: 1940K --> 2040Ca + -10e where the -10e represents a beta particle or electron. The equation for the positive beta decay of 40K: 1940K --> 1840Ar+ 10e where the 10e represents a positive beta particle or positron. The equation for the decay of 40K by electron capture is:1940K + -10e --> 1840Ar + ve

What is the strength of a beta particle?
The strength of a beta particle is its ability to cross the absorber to reach the detector.Now the strength of a beta particle depends upon the energy of the beta particle and thickness of the absorber.
