A trick I use: write the decays in alphabetical order, excluding gamma since "nothing happens" Alpha, Beta, EC, PE then write the word SASS underneath them. now you know to subtract from alpha, add for beta, subtract for electron capture and subtract for positron emission. then you just have to remember it's 4/2 for alpha and 1 is either added or subtracted for everything else :)

I love this!
@@medcatmcat thanks! couldn't have learned it without your great videos! :)
Just to add to this just if you want to add make the acronym SASSY so u also remember gamma and just put 0/0 underneath it
I make videos on demand! Let me know what video you'd like to see next.
isoelectric
So much simpler than how they explain it in class!
This was extremely helpful! Thank you so much and please keep it up!
Thanks, will do!:)
on my journey watching all of your videos and I am blessed you are wonderful ty for making these
Best of luck on your journey! You're very welcome.
Thank you so much!! This video was straightforward, easy to understand, and extremely helpful!!
Thank you so much!
Concise and simple explanation. This is much appreciated, thank you!
You're very welcome!
You explained this so well!
Thank you! I'm glad I could be of help.
ok so how does losing an electron increase the number of protons for beta decay... wouldn't only the charge increase?
Thank you!!!
You're welcome!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
god bless you
