    Alpha particles, Beta particles and Gamma rays

    Explanation:

    The emission of particles when a radioactive atom decays is called radioactivity.

    An atom is radioactive as a result of unstable nucleus. This unstable nucleus of the atom disinintegrates and leads to emission of Alpha particles, Beta particles and gamma rays.

    Alpha particles contain 2 protons and 2 neutrons. They are positively charged

    Beta particles are negatively charged

    Gamma rays are electromagnetic waves with short wavelength
