When radioactive decay causes loss of one or more protons, a new element is formed. Radioactive decay is the spontaneous disintegration of an unstable atom as it losses energy and transforms itself. As the protons are lost the atom becomes smaller. Radioactive decay usually results from electromagnetic radiation or/and emission of particles.
Answer:
A. Is independent of other energy influences
Explanation:
Nuclear decay occurs at a constant rate. The rate of decay is independent of temperature.
B, C, and D are wrong. The decay rate cannot be sped up or slowed down at ordinary temperatures.
Answer:
it changes.
Explanation:
when in solid form it has an amount of mass. but when evaporated, water is pretty much massless.
Try to search it up on yahoo, it might work
It has an equal number of electrons and protons. Hope that helps!
