Both isotopes and radioactive isotopes are pretty much the same but radioactive isotopes are better because it can be used to make medicine.

What are isotopes considered radioactive?
Not all isotopes are radioactive; the radioactive isotopes are unstable and emit radiations.
What is the meaninq of two isotopes stable and unstable isotopes?
Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons. Stable isotopes have a balanced number of protons and neutrons, meaning their nuclei do not decay over time. Unstable isotopes, also known as radioactive isotopes, have an imbalance of protons and neutrons, causing their nuclei to decay and emit radiation over time.
Does sodium contain radioactive isotopes?
Sodium has no radioactive isotopes.
Does radioactive isotopes have a stable nuclei?
Radioactive isotopes are not stable.
What are three different isotopes in nitrogen?
Nitrogen has two stable isotopes: N-14 and N-15 and 14 radioactive isotopes.
How many neutrons does Ar element have?
That depends on the isotope, as Argon has three different stable isotopes and many different radioactive isotopes.
Does plutonium have isotopes that are all radioactive?
All the uranium isotopes are radioactive.
What happens to all radioactive isotopes?
All radioactive isotopes will disintegrate.
What is the half-life of every radioactive element?
The same element can have different half-lives, for different isotopes. You can find a list at the Wikipedia article "List of radioactive isotopes by half-life". This list is NOT complete; a complete list would have about 3000 nuclides (that is, isotopes).
Are all isotopes of francium radioactive?
All isotopes of francium are radioactive.
Isotopes which have unstable nucleus and break down at a constant rate over time?
radioactive isotopes! :)
What are Radioactive isotopes used for?
Some examples are deuterium and tritium which are radioactive isotopes of hydrogen.
