Answer:
3) they lose energy at a varying rate - is the correct answer.
Radioactive decay is defined as the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses its energy by emitting radiations. The decay is random and cannot be predicted earlier.

Explanation:
Answer:
D
Explanation:
This is because one of its orbital shells is not filled – the one with 1 electron. This atom will, therefore, want to lose this electron – it takes less energy to do this than gain 7 electrons -- to achieve stable electron configuration. This makes this atom very reactive in a chemical reaction. Usually orbital shells of atoms begin with an S orbital shell that is filled with 2 electrons then P (x,y,z) orbital shells filled with 6 electrons total. There are also higher energy f and d orbitals that each take a maximum 10 and 14 electrons respectively. An atom is stable if its orbitals are fully filled.
