a) Alpha decay occurs when an unstable nuclide emits an alpha particle, (which is just a helium-4 atom), which contains 2 protons and 4 neutrons. This means that transmutation has occurred (since a nuclide of a different element will be produced), and this newly produced nuclide will have 2 fewer protons and 4 fewer neutrons than the original nuclide.
b)
c) Alpha decay occurs when an unstable nuclide emits a beta particle, (also known as an electron). This causes transmutation (since a nuclide of a different element will be produced), and this newly produced nuclide will have 1 more proton than the original nuclide.
d)
