- Polonium-212 decays into Lead-208, emitting an alpha particle. The mass of polonium is $$3.51986x10^-25kg$$ The mass of lead is $$3.45323x10^-25kg$$ and the mass of an alpha particle is $$6.646x10^-27kg$$
Calculate the difference between the initial and final masses of the reaction
- Relevant Equations
- None given
Don't really know how to go about this exercise as I've been given no information for it I tried googling similar problems but couldn't find any
If someone could give me a process to try I will then try to solve it here in this section, thanks.
