The correct answer is Gamma decay. It happens after beta and alpha decay because what's left after those two can enter a new process of gamma decay. This releases gamma rays which is a more complex term for the photons that you mentioned before. These rays can be dangerous for humans so care not to get caught in them.

Key words how atoms work?
pantera1 [17]
Most atoms have three different subatomic particles inside them: protons, neutrons, and electrons. The protons and neutrons are packed together into the center of the atom(which is called the nucleus) and the electrons, which are very much smaller, whizz around the outside. Most of an atom is empty space.

I hope this helps you! :D

38.25 grams of silicon is combined with 14.33 grams of nitrogen gas. How many grams of silicon nitride can be formed if nitrogen
zhuklara [117]
3Si + 2N2 --> Si3N4 (as given) 

n(Si) = m/MM = 38.25/28.085 = 1.3619 mol
n(N2) = 14.33/2*14.007 = 0.5115 mol

Therefore, N2 is limiting and Si is in excess 
The molar ratio of 2N2:Si3N4 is 2:1 
So, 0.0575 mol of silicon nitride is formed (dividing 0.5115 by 2) 

m of silicon nitride= n*mm = 0.0575*140.283 = 8.06627... g 
= 8.066g (4 significant figures) 

(hopefully it is right, but double check in case i did something wrong) :)
