Magnesium

Magnesium naturally occurs in three stable isotopes, 24Mg, 25Mg, and 26Mg, The longest-lived radioisotope is 28Mg with a half-life of 20,915 hours, The lighter isotopes mostly decay to isotopes of sodium while the heavier isotopes decay to isotopes of aluminium, Magnesium-24 is composed of 12 protons, 12 neutrons, and 12 electrons,

In this case all nuclei decay by electron capture because the Q-value Q = 0,836 MeV is not high enough for decay the threshold energy for positron emission is 1,022 MeV, The most probable transition of the Co 57 nuclei is through capture to an excited state of Fe 57 at 0,136 MeV, From this level Co 57 continues to decay

Question #2b0c9

Here’s what I got, So, you know that the first nuclear equation has aluminium-27 react with a neutron, A neutron has no charge and an atomic mass equal to one, so you can write “”_13^27″Al” + “”_0^1″n” -> “”_13^28″Al” The resulting aluminium-28 isotope will then decay via alpha decay, When isotopes undergo alpah decay, their nucleus emits an alpha particle, which is essentially the nucleus …

21,2 Nuclear Equations – Chemistry

Solution, The nuclear reaction can be written as: 25 12Mg + 4 2He 1 1H + A ZX 12 25 Mg + 2 4 He 1 1 H + Z A X, where A is the mass number and Z is the atomic number of the new nuclide, X, Because the sum of the mass numbers of the reactants must equal the sum of the mass numbers of the products: 25 + 4 =A + 1, or A = 28 25 + 4 = A + 1, or A = 28,

ChemTeam: Writing Alpha and Beta Equations

Alpha Decay, In 1899, Ernest Rutherford wrote the following words: “These experiments show that the uranium radiation is complex and that there are present at least two distinct types of radiation – one that is very readily absorbed, which will be termed for convenience the alpha-radiation, and the other of more penetrative character which will be termed the beta-radiation,”

Neptunium

The primary decay mode for Np-237 is by alpha–decay forming protactinium, The primary decay mode for the isotopes heavier than Np-237 is by beta-decay, forming plutonium, Neptunium-237, after decaying to protactinium then to uranium, eventually decays to form bismuth-209 and thallium-205, Unlike most other common heavy nuclei which decay to make isotopes of lead this decay chain is known as
