What does titanium radioactively decay into?
Ti has a half life of about 60 years and decays by electron capture, which in itself is very difficult to detect, but it decays to the excited state of 44Sc nucleus which decays by gamma emission. Note most of these radionuclides have half lives less than a year. Only 22Na, 55Fe, and 60Co have longer half lives.
What is the half-life of scandium 42?

Scandium/Symbol
How many Isotopes does scandium have?
Why does scandium have 9 electrons?
Scandium is the first element of the period table where electron configurations start getting a little wild. Every element adds one more electron to the outermost shell. Instead of having three electrons in the outer shell, scandium adds its electron to the second to last shell. The electron configuration is 2-8-9-2.
What is SC in the periodic table?
scandium (Sc), chemical element, a rare-earth metal of Group 3 of the periodic table.
