During alpha -decay:

In nuclear decay process if n/p ratio increases then which decay process may have ocurred

An radioactive atom (""_(​Z)​X^(​A)​) undergoes alpha -decay then ratio of energy of α-particle and daughter nuclei increases with increase in :-

Staements I: In alpha decay of different radioactive nuclides, the energy of alpha particles has been compared. It is found that as the energy of alpha particle increases the half-life of the decay goes on decreasing. Staements II: More is the energy in any decay process, more is the probability of decaying the nuclide which leads to faster rate of decay.

What is alpha -decay? What is the consequence of an alpha -decay on a radioactive element ?

Statement-1 : In alpha -emission, the alpha -particle carries in heavy elements. and Statement-2 : In alpha -decay, the alpha -particle being lighter has more velocity.
