Which change occurs when an atom undergoes decay?

Physics
1 answer:
Alina [70]3 years ago
6 0
<span>When an atom undergoes decay its nucleus becomes unstable because it does not have a balance of neurons and protons. This means the atoms try to find a confirmation in which it is stable. In doing so, it is possible that the atom changes its element, and it frees a huge amount of energy in order to balance itself. This is the base of radioactivity.</span>
