Does Are the electrons also get distributed in anfor the alpha decay?

Consider this reaction of alpha decay: ( Note: The elements are written as follows -> Element Name(Mass Number, Atomic Number) )

Ra(222, 88) -----------> Rn(218, 86) + He(4, 2)$$ \ce{^{222}_{88}Ra -> ^{218}_{86}Rn + ^4_2 He} $$

So theMy question is that, whether or not the electrons also get distributed in the reaction like the nucleons??

Are the electrons also distributed for the alpha decay?

$$ \ce{^{222}_{88}Ra -> ^{218}_{86}Rn + ^4_2 He} $$
