The accompanying graph illustrates the decay of 8842Mo, which decays via positron emission. (d) What is the product of the decay process? [Section 21.4]

검증된 단계별 안내1
Identify the initial isotope undergoing decay: ^{88}_{42}Mo.
Determine the type of decay: positron emission (β^+ decay).
Write the nuclear equation for positron emission: ^{88}_{42}Mo → ^{88}_{41}Nb + β^+.
Identify the product of the decay process: the new element formed is Niobium (Nb) with a mass number of 88 and an atomic number of 41.
Verify the conservation of mass and atomic numbers in the nuclear equation to ensure the correctness of the product.

Radioactive Decay
Radioactive decay is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by emitting radiation. This can occur through various modes, including alpha decay, beta decay, and positron emission. In the case of positron emission, a proton in the nucleus is transformed into a neutron, releasing a positron and a neutrino, which results in a decrease in the atomic number of the element.

Decay Products
The decay product is the new element or isotope formed as a result of radioactive decay. For example, when molybdenum-88 (
88
42Mo) undergoes positron emission, it transforms into a different element with a lower atomic number. Understanding the decay products is crucial for applications in nuclear chemistry, medicine, and radiometric dating.

Half-Life
Half-life is the time required for half of the radioactive nuclei in a sample to decay. This concept is essential for predicting the behavior of radioactive substances over time. The graph provided illustrates the decay of radon-218, showing how the mass decreases exponentially, which is characteristic of half-life behavior in radioactive decay processes.
