Understanding Radioactivity: The Role of Protons and Neutrons in Atomic Nuclei

This article explores the concept of radioactivity, explaining how certain atomic nuclei become unstable. It delves into the composition of an atom's nucleus, including protons and neutrons, and the forces that govern their stability. Readers will learn about positron emission when there are insufficient neutrons and beta emission resulting from an excess of neutrons. The balance between these particles is crucial for maintaining a stable atomic structure, shedding light on the fundamental principles of nuclear physics.
