Any element that gives off radioactivity in the form of alpha or beta is undergoing a nuclear reaction and emitting some energy in doing so. Naturally ocurring radioactive materials include radium, radon, uranium. There are hundreds of radioactive isotopes produced artificially as well, from many other elements.

Is Nuclear power the best source for clean electricity?

While there are no electricity sources that are one hundred percent clean for the environment, nuclear energy is close to the top of best energy sources. While nuclear energy will give a radioactive material, there are no dangerous air emissions, because nuclear energy gives off steam.

IS Nuclear power is the only energy source which gives off radiation?

No, nuclear power is not the only energy source that gives off radiation. Coal-fired power plants, for example, also release radioactive materials into the environment. However, nuclear power plants do release more radiation than other energy sources.
