How are tacers used to help with medical diagnosis?
A radioactive isotope which, when attached to a chemically similar substance or injected into a biological or physical system, can be traced by radiation detection devices, permitting determination of the distribution or location of the substance to which it is attached. Also known as radiotracer.
What is another substance similar to borax?
Another substance similar to borax is washing soda, also known as sodium carbonate. Both borax and washing soda can be used as natural cleaning agents and laundry boosters due to their alkaline properties. However, washing soda is stronger and more alkaline than borax.

What is another word for the phrase exposed to radiation?
The generic term would be "irradiated", which is also used to mean illuminated but can be identified by its context. This is similar to the use of "contaminated" to mean radioactive.
What are four properties of seaborgium?
radioactive, unstable, metallic, similar to wolfram
What planets and celestial bodies seem to be radioactive?
Stars seem to be, but they don't have big and/or unstable atoms such as most radioactive elements have. They release sub atomic units when their atoms fuse, along with rays such as gamma rays, which is why they can seem to be similar to other radioactive things. Some planets with atmostpheres that are ionised by ionising rays can also be similar to radioactive things perhaps.
What word is similar to matter?
Substance.
What is the relationship between half-life and the activity of the scource?
In general, the shorter the half-life of a radioactive substance, the more active it is. Think about it. Say you have two samples of radioactive material the size of sugar cubes. And let's say they have about the same number of atoms of the radioactive substance in them initially, but the substances are different. Substance A has a very short half-life. Substance B has an extremely long half-life. Let's look at what happens. In substance A, the material with the short half-life, atoms will be disintegrating at a high rate. There will be lots of radiation (with the type being determined by the method of decay), and it will have a high activity. It will be "hot" in the language of the physicist. Substance B will be taking its sweet time decaying. One atom here and one atom there will be decaying, and you could hold it in your hand for a while without doing much damage to yourself. In contrast, substance A would have to be kept in a containment cask to keep people who work around it safe from the radiation. For similar amounts of radioactive material, shorter half-lives mean higher activity. Having read this far, it should be simple and easy to see.
Which element is likely to be contained in a substance with a brilliant yellow color?
A common substance that will have a yellow color is the element sulfur (S). Another substance of similar brilliant color is yellow cake uranium (Ur).
What is a radioactive nonmetal At Po Ra Xe none of these?
Astatine is a radioactive, natural element and also a nonmetal similar to halogens.
What source of energy does an internal combustion engine use?
