radioactive element different types of radiation carbon-14 spontaneously emits beta particles from its nuclei since beta particles are attracted to the positive place of an applied Electric impact beta particles are electrons that are formed and then admitted from the nuclei of when the Decay process converted to a proton and the beta particle  the carbon-14 nucleus contains six protons and eight Tron  is electron called a beta particle is in a ejected from reducing nitrogen-14  a nitrogen-14 nucleus is stable no further radioactive decay occurs cobalt-60 is used for radiation therapy in treating certain cancers it's fun gamma rays are very high-energy electromagnetic radiation but have no detectable charge or Mass a Cobalt 60 contains 27 protons and 30 neutrons is emitted the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus half light for the prophet is 5.26 years that mean that half of a given sample will undergo this process radon 222 is being formed continuously in our environment play the king of uranium-238 right on being a noble gas is chemically unreactive and it's free to seep up from the ground and into homes  radon spontaneously emits alpha particles from its nuclei you're attracted to the negative plate radon 222 nucleus 86 protons and 136 neutrons an alpha particle is equivalent to helium for nuclear 218 is produced since an alpha particle contains two protons the atomic number decrease by 2 from 86 to 84 an alpha particle has a mass number of 4 so the mass number decreases from 2:22 to 2:18 the polonium-218 isotope unstable and therefore under goes further radioactive decay both Alpha and beta particle are deflected by an applied electrical field while gamma rays are unaffected particle  an alpha particle composed of two protons and two neutrons is approximately 7000 times the mass of a bait
