Lesson Topic
radioactive decay
Lesson Outline
Review alpha decay. Introduce beta decay and neutron decomposition to form a proton and electron.
Discuss gamma rays, ions, and the changes in charge. Write the transmutation formula for uranium to thorium by Alpha decay. Show examples of beta decay of thorium by emission of an electron from the decomposition of a neutron. Write and discuss a complete radioactive decay series for thorium to lead
