oops i forgot to put my answer
i think its B but i want reassurance
The resulting nucleus is more stable than the original nucleus. The nucleus can be of a different element than the original.
The resulting nucleus is more stable than the original nucleus. The nucleus must be of the same element as the original.
The resulting nucleus is less stable than the original nucleus. The nucleus can be of a different element than the original.
The resulting nucleus is less stable than the original nucleus. The nucleus must be of the same element as the original.

2. B a series of reactions in which particles from one reaction trigger the next reaction
3. C disturbing a drop of waterβ¦
4. D popping a bag of popcorn
5. B the resulting nucleus is more stable than the original nucleus. the nucleus can be different than the original.
When a nucleus undergoes radioactive decay, the resulting nucleus is more stable than the original nucleus. This is because the original nucleus was unstable and needed to release energy or particles to reach a more stable state. Therefore, the first part of the statement "The resulting nucleus is more stable than the original nucleus" is true.
However, the second part of the statement is incorrect. The nucleus that is formed as a result of radioactive decay can be of a different element than the original nucleus. This is because during radioactive decay, the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus may change, leading to the formation of a different element. Therefore, the correct answer is: "The resulting nucleus is more stable than the original nucleus. The nucleus can be of a different element than the original."
