Which Nuclear Equation Represents A Spontaneous Decay class=

Sagot :

Answer:A

Explanation:

1. [tex]^{222}Rn_{86}[/tex] → [tex]^{218}Po_{84} + ^{4}He_{2}[/tex]

What is a spontaneous decay?

  • Spontaneous fission (SF) is a form of radioactive decay where an atom's nucleus splits into two smaller nuclei and generally one or more neutrons.
  • Out of the given options, only option 1. [tex]^{222}Rn_{86}[/tex] → [tex]^{218}Po_{84} + ^{4}He_{2}[/tex] is an example of spontaneous decay since an atom nucleus is splitting into two daughter nuclei's.
  • Spontaneous decay would refer to whether or not decay was stimulated by bombardment with neutrons or alphas while random decay refers to the selection of which nuclei actually decay
