Uranium-234 is unstable and undergoes two subsequent alpha emissions. What is the resulting nuclide from this transformation?

Question

anonymous · Answer

The resulting nuclide is Uranium-226. (I think.)

alpha decay is the emission of 4/2 He. so it can't be uranium it self.

frostbite · Answer

Look at the periodic table and go 4 elements back from uranium.

I got Yb? hahaha what the heck?

frostbite · Answer

Yb? sure? I want it to be Radium as it has the atomic number 88 where uranium has the atomic number 92. 92-2*2=92-4=88
