Technetium, Promethium, and all elements heavier than Bismuth.
Not all of the transition elements are radioactive. Many of them are, and some of them have common radioactive isotopes, but some of them have no naturally occurring radioactive isotopes. Please note that all elements have synthetic radioactive isotopes, at least.
Usually not, but all elements have radioactive isotopes.
Radioactive Elements (38) These elements are radioactive. They either have no stable naturally occurring isotope, or else are entirely artificial (all artificial elements have no stable isotopes). by Andrew Moore
Most of the natural occurring (isotopes of) elements are NOT radioactive.Though most of all the known isotopes are radioactive but most of them do NOT naturally occur.
Elements with no stable isotopes are called radioactive elements. These elements spontaneously undergo radioactive decay, which leads to the formation of stable isotopes over time.
yes, all elements have isotopes. some stable, some radioactive.
All erbium ordinarily found in nature is of stable isotopes. Like all other elements, erbium has synthetic radioactive isotopes.
The atoms that are radioactive are those with unstable nuclei. There is no easy way to tell which is which, so the isotope has to be looked up. All elements have at least some radioactive isotopes. There are 36 elements for which all radioactive isotopes are synthetic or fission products, so for practical purposes, there are no radioactive isotopes of them in nature, except where introduced by human activity. They include most of the common elements we find in nature, but not all. There are 44 elements that are found as stable isotopes, but at least traces of radioactive isotopes are found in nature. Among these are hydrogen, carbon, sodium, silicon, chlorine, and potassium, all of which are necessary for life. Radioactive potassium, in particular, is present as 0.012% of all potassium. For another group of elements, including technetium, promethium, and all with atomic numbers of 83 (bismuth) or more, there is no isotope that is stable.
No, Barium has both stable and radioactive isotopes. Out of its 25 known isotopes, only 6 of them are considered radioactive. The most stable isotope of Barium is Barium-138, which is not radioactive.
All or almost all elements have radioactive isotopes if artificial isotopes are included. Among the naturally occurring elements, uranium, polonium, radium, and thorium have naturally occurring radioactive isotopes on earth.
No radioactive isotopes of neon are ordinarily found in nature. All elements have radioactive synthetic isotopes, however.
None of the isotopes of xenon ordinarily found in nature is radioactive. Like all elements, xenon has synthetic radioactive isotopes.
