You can detect radioactivity using a Geiger counter or other radiation detectors. Radioactive materials emit ionizing radiation such as alpha, beta, or gamma particles, which can be measured to determine the level of radioactivity. Additionally, certain properties like half-life and decay products can also indicate if a substance is radioactive.
Something that is radioactive is called a radionuclide.
No, it's called "radioactive." "Retroactive" is something that's active in regards to the past.
Hydrogen is an element.
For an object to be considered radioactive, it must contain unstable atoms that undergo radioactive decay, emitting radiation in the process. Common radioactive elements include uranium, thorium, and radium. The level of radioactivity is measured by the rate at which the atoms decay, typically expressed in units such as becquerels or curies.
It's a semantic thing - by definition, if something gives out radiation, then it is radioactive. If an element gives off radiation, then it is a 'radioactive' element. If it does not give out radiation, then it is not 'radioactive'.
Something that is radioactive is called a radionuclide.
There are no radioactive spiders. This is something from a movie, and has never happened. There is no way to find images of radioactive spiders.
Carbon-14 (12 Protons & electrons, and 14 Neutrons)
You can just put something in the sentence that is going to be radioactive that's all.
its nuclei can split apart
No. There is no reason why rabbit feces should be radioactive, unless of course they ate something radioactive or they are under medical care using radioactive isotopes. It might be possible that if the soil is radioactive, and the plants become radioactive, that a rabbit might excrete radioactive feces from eating the plants.
Yes some things that are radioactive are toxic. Being able to harm an exposed organism.
Uranium and ummm something else
don't know
No. The sun is made up of a ball of gases, and the only radioactive gas we know of is Radon. Also, most radioactive elements are man-made.
You grow an extra limb or two.
All plants have radioactive waste, especially fossil fuel plants.
