∙ 15y agoIn the case of Rn-222, which is the "isotope of concern" because it occurs naturally, it decays as follows: 222Rn => 218Po + He+2 In this equation, we see the radon isotope Rn-222 emit an alpha particle (the helium nucleus) and undergo a transformation to become the polonium isotope, Po-218.

∙ 15y agoThe predominant method of decay for radon is alpha decay. The balanced reaction for the alpha decay of radon-222 is: ^222Rn -> ^218Po + α where ^222Rn is the radon nucleus, ^218Po is the polonium nucleus, and α is an alpha particle.
The balanced nuclear equation for the beta decay of zirconium-97 (97Zr) is: 97Zr -> 97Nb + e-, where e- represents a beta particle (electron), and 97Nb is the resulting nuclide, niobium-97.
Radioactive reaction is a red-ox reaction. This is a nuclear decay.
The process of decay with carbon 13 can be described by a nuclear reaction.
The balanced nuclear equation for the alpha decay of thorium-230 is: ^230Th → ^226Ra + ^4He
When a neutron -> proton, it is called a Beta - (minus) decay.
The balanced nuclear equation for the beta decay of zirconium-97 (97Zr) is: 97Zr -> 97Nb + e-, where e- represents a beta particle (electron), and 97Nb is the resulting nuclide, niobium-97.
The balanced nuclear equation for the beta decay of potassium-42 is: ^42K -> ^42Ca + e^- + νe

Radioactive reaction is a red-ox reaction. This is a nuclear decay.
yes
No. It is a nuclear reaction - radioactive disintegration.
This is because only one isotope decay.
The process of decay with carbon 13 can be described by a nuclear reaction.
Nuclear energy is either:fission reaction, orfusion reaction, orradioactive decay
nuclear decay rates take more time and chemical reaction rates could happen fast.
The balanced nuclear equation for the alpha decay of thorium-230 is: ^230Th → ^226Ra + ^4He
it decays because the oxygen reaches it and it has a reaction.
