Given:
Atomic mass of 228Th, m(228Th) = 228.028726 u
Atomic mass of 224Ra, m(224Ra) = 224.020196 u
Atomic mass of , m() = 4.00260 u
Mass of 224Ra = 224.020196 × 931 + 0.217 MeV = 208563.0195 MeV
Kinetic energy of alpha particle, K = c2
= (228.028726 × 931) − [(208563.0195 + 4.00260 × 931]
= 5.30383 MeV = 5.304 MeV
