Because of the radioactive decay of uranium and thorium in rocks and soil, radium-228, a decay product of Thorium-232, can be found in drinking water. This isotope has a half-life of 5.75 years and an atomic number of 88. If Ra-228 undergoes beta decay, what would the atomic number of the new element be? What would the mass number of this isotope be? Explain your reasoning (e. g. Explain what happens during beta decay).
