A radioactive element forms its own isotope after 3 consecutive disintegrations.The particles emitted are |
|
Answer» 3 `BETA`- particles An isotope should have same Z. `alpha`- particle = `._(2)He^(4)`, `beta`- particle = `._(-1)beta^(0)` The EMISSION of one `alpha` particle and the emission of TWO `beta` particles maintain the Z same. Hence for isotope formation `2beta` particles and one `alpha` particle are emitted. |
