Radioactive elements
Elements with atomic numbers greater than 83 are radioactive Why? These elements have too many protons & neutrons crammed into their nucleus to be stable. What happens? The elements “decay” by giving off mass & energy

Vocabulary Nuclear Reactions – reactions that effect the nucleus of an atom
Radioactive Decay –unstable nuclei lose mass (protons/neutrons) & energy to become stable

Natural transmutation - The nucleus of an atom releases a proton and changes into a different atom. Artificial (man-made) transmutation -The nucleus of an atom is hit with particles that have great quantities of energy. The particles either add to the nucleus or break apart it apart. This changes the atom into a different atom.

How it changes
the nucleus
• Decreases the mass
number by 4 • Decreases the
atomic number by 2 • Contains 2 protons
and 2 neutrons
• Converts a neutron into a proton
• Send off a fast moving e- (β)
• Increases atomic number by 1
-High energy radiation –just energy! (gamma rays) -No change to the nucleus -emitted with alpha & beta radiation

Alpha Radiation
Alpha decay is limited to VERY large, nuclei such as those in heavy metals. (α, He): helium nucleus

Alpha particles in a reaction • Alpha radiation is emitted from U-238
23892U →234
90Th + 42He Is matter conserved? Yes!
• Now you try! • Alpha radiation is emitted from Rn-222 222
86Rn → 21884Po+ 42He

88Ra + 42He + γ – When the alpha particle is released a huge
amount of energy is also released (the gamma particle)!

Beta Radiation
Beta decay converts a neutron into a proton and an e- (β) is released

Beta particles in a reaction • C-14 is a beta emitter, show the decay process • 14
6C →147N + 0-1β

19K →
4020Ca + 0-1 β

Positron Particle
• Same mass as an electron • Neutrons can be formed by protons that emit
a positron • They have a negligible mass
– Consequently they are more penetrating than alpha particles
• They have a charge of +1
