I have these two questions on the homework

1. The radioactive decay series for Thorium-232 involves only alpha and beta emission and ends at the formation of  the stable Lead-208 nuclide. Construct a hypothetical graph for this decay series. How many alpha and beta emissions are involved per nuclei?

2. At the end of the fairytale Beauty and the Beast, Belle kisses the Beast, turning him from a 160 kg monster into a 90 kg human prince. Assuming this lost mass was converted directly into energy, what amount of energy was released by this transformation? For fun, google something like "TNT Equivalent" to get an idea of the massive scale of this detonation; about how much destruction did Belle cause by kissing the Beast?

How does one do any of that? I wasn't given any instruction on how to do it.
