After a radioactive atom decays, it is the same element that it was before with no measurable change in mass. Which kind of decay has occurred, and how do you know?.

Respuesta :

Gamma decay is a radioactive decay in which there is no measurable change in mass and the element remains the same.

What happens in gamma decay?

In gamma decay, the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus does not change, so the product of decay remain the same element..

Note that mass number is equal to the sum of the protons and neutrons and so if there is no change, the mass of the element remains the same.

Thus, gamma decay is a radioactive decay in which there is no measurable change in mass and the element remains the same.
