The nucleus will attempt to change the internal structure to a more stable form, sometimes resulting in the ejection of a charged particle from the nucleus. Every time the nucleus changes its structure, it is called a radioactive disintegration or transformation. This may result in a change to the atomic number, the atomic mass number or both. If the atomic number is changed, then the resulting element will be different. It is not possible to predict which atom in a sample will change its internal structure; the disintegration of an atom is random event.
