प्रश्न

Thorium 90Th232 is disintegrated into lead 82Pb200. Find the number of α and β particles emitted in disintegration.

उत्तर

When an α-particle is emitted by an atom, its atomic number decreases by 2 and mass number decreases by 4.

When 90Th232 disintegrates to 82Pb200, 8 α particles are emitted.

When a β-particle is radiated, the atomic number increases by 1 and mass number does not change.

When 90Th232 disintegrates to 82Pb200, 8 β particles are emitted.
