Mass number of a radioactive element is \(232\) and its atomic number is \(90\). When
this element undergoes certain nuclear
reactions, it transforms into an isotope of
lead with a mass number \(208\) and an atomic
number \(82\). Determine the number of alpha
and beta decay that can occur.
On using the given data,
On using the atomic number and mass number of \(α\) and \(β\) particles, respectively.
Number of \(β\) decays \(=\)
Number of \(α\) decays \(=\)
