When radioactive decay causes loss of one or more protons, a new element is formed. Radioactive decay is the spontaneous disintegration of an unstable atom as it losses energy and transforms itself. As the protons are lost the atom becomes smaller. Radioactive decay usually results from electromagnetic radiation or/and emission of particles.
