Across
- 4. Mass number decreases by 4, atomic number decreases by 2, and the resulting atom belongs to an element two places back in the periodic table.
- 7. There is no change in mass number-no loss in nucleons, atomic number increases by 1, and the resulting atom belongs to an element one place forward in the periodic table.
- 8. Is the process in which unstable atomic nuclei transform and emit radiation.
- 9. High-energy particles and high-frequency electromagnetic radiation (gamma rays).
- 10. How many types of radiation?
