If uranium-234 decays via alpha emission, what is the likely product of radioactive decay? (u, atomic no. = 92)

An alpha emission is one in which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle (helium nucleus). Therefore in this reaction, the products of the decay are Helium and another element X. Helium has an atomic mass and atomic number of 4 and 2 respectively, therefore the complete reaction is:

U-234 (92) ---> He-4 (2) + X

Since atomic mass and number must be conserved therefore X = X-230 (90)

U-234 (92) ---> He-4 (2) + X-230 (90)

The element with atomic number of 90 is Thorium. Therefore the other product is Thorium-230 (90).

U-234 (92) ---> He-4 (2) + Th-230 (90)

mention the spill to the teacher clean the area and throw the broken pieces away

explanation:

explanation: it gains negative electrons, therefore becoming negatively charged. as charge cannot be created, nor destroyed, only transferred, this leaves the wool positive. now that they have opposite charges, the two items attract.
