A stable nucleus will decay, or emit, particles.

False

False. A stable nucleus will not naturally decay or emit particles. Stability in a nucleus means that the forces between the protons and neutrons are balanced, which prevents spontaneous decay. However, unstable or radioactive nuclei can undergo spontaneous decay and emit particles, such as alpha particles (helium nucleus), beta particles (electrons or positrons), or gamma rays (energetic photons). To determine whether a nucleus is stable or unstable, one needs to consider the nuclear forces, number of protons and neutrons, as well as other factors such as energy levels and spin.

False.

A stable nucleus does not decay or emit particles. Stable nuclei have a balanced number of protons and neutrons, which allows them to remain unchanged over time. They are not radioactive and do not undergo spontaneous decay.
