Under certain circumstances,a nucleus can decay by emitting a particle more massive than an $\alpha$-particle. Consider the following decay processes:
$_{88}^{223} Ra \rightarrow _{82}^{209} Pb + _{6}^{14} C$
$_{88}^{223} Ra \rightarrow _{86}^{219} Rn + _{2}^{4} He$
Calculate the $Q$-values for these decays and determine that both are energetically allowed.
