Is there any isotopes in phosphorus?
Yes, the most stable isotopes are 31P, 32P, and 33P. 31P is stable with 16 neutrons. 32P has a half-life of 14.28 days with 17 neutrons. 33P has a half-life of 25.3 days with 18 neutrons.
Are metastable isotopes used in medicine?
Two isomers of technetium were used in medicine.
What is the difference between radiogenic isotope and stable isotope?
Radiogenic isotopes are formed through the radioactive decay of parent isotopes, while stable isotopes do not undergo radioactive decay. Radiogenic isotopes are used in geochronology to date rocks and minerals, while stable isotopes are used in various fields such as climate science and nutrition studies.
Does radioactive isotopes have a stable nuclei?
Radioactive isotopes are not stable.
How are radioactive isotopes different from isotopes?
Both isotopes and radioactive isotopes are pretty much the same but radioactive isotopes are better because it can be used to make medicine.
How do radioisotopes of an element differ from other isotopes?
Radioisotopes are unstable isotopes that undergo radioactive decay, emitting particles and/or energy in the process. This distinguishes them from stable isotopes that do not undergo radioactive decay. Radioisotopes are often used in medicine, industry, and research for various applications due to their unique properties related to their decay process.
How is a radioactive isotope helpful in medicine?
In medicine isotopes are used for treatments, diagnostics or as tracers.
What are some of the roles of isotopes?
- Isotopes are used as sources of radiation in medicine, sterilization, nondestructive control, etc.- Isotopes can be used as tracers- Isotopes can be used as energy source- Isotopes are used for radioactive dating- Isotopes are used in chemical analysis- Isotopes are used in many instruments- Isotopes are used as source of nuclear energy in bombs and nuclear reactorsetc.
How many stable isotopes does the element copper have?
copper has 2 stable isotopes
What isotopes are stable?
Hydrogen-1 and hydrogen-2 isotopes are radioactively stable.
Are most isotopes stable?
No, most isotopes are not stable. Many isotopes are radioactive and decay over time, releasing radiation in the process. Only a few isotopes are stable and do not undergo radioactive decay.
What is the stable nucleus produced at the end of the decay steps in a uranium decay series?
Thorium, radium, radon, polonium, thallium, etc.
