Is spontaneous fusion a form of radioactive decay?
No, the fusion process is the opposite of the radioactive decay process. Fusion is the merging together of nuclei to form a heavier nucleus whereas fission or radioactive decay is the splitting apart of a heavy nucleus into lighter daughter nuclei.
Radioactive substances consist of nuclei that can't be held together by the what?
Radioactive substances consist of nuclei that can't be held together by the strong force.
Unstable atomic nuclei decay over time into stable nuclei causing a mineral to be?
radioactive
Mitosis makes how many daughter cells?
1Two daughter nuclei are produced. They are identical cell nuclei
What is nuclei that has unstable decay known as?
Atomic nuclei that are unstable and decaying are said to be radioactive. Radioactive decay involves alpha, beta and gamma particle emissions.
Is spontaneous fusion a form of radioactive decay?
No, the fusion process is the opposite of the radioactive decay process. Fusion is the merging together of nuclei to form a heavier nucleus whereas fission or radioactive decay is the splitting apart of a heavy nucleus into lighter daughter nuclei.
What happens to a radioactive material over time?
It disintegrates into its daughter nuclei that are much more stabler than the radioactive nuclei. If a sample of radioacictive material is left it will decay into another element over a period of time. Note that complete decay is not possible. A fraction of the original radioactive material will always remain in the sample.
Does radioactive isotopes have a stable nuclei?
Radioactive isotopes are not stable.
Radioactive substances consist of nuclei that can't be held together by the what?
Radioactive substances consist of nuclei that can't be held together by the strong force.
How do some nuclei change?
Atomic nuclei are changed by nuclear reactions or radioactive disintegration.
What is fision?
fission- is a process in which the nuclei of radioactive atoms are split in to two or more smaller nuclei.
Unstable atomic nuclei decay over time into stable nuclei causing a mineral to be?
radioactive
What are atoms that emit particles and energy from their nuclei?
radioactive
What does it mean for something to be radioactive?
its nuclei can split apart
The two daughter nuclei are formed during?
During the telophase stage of mitosis and meiosis two daughter nuclei are formed. The daughter nuclei begin forming the two ends of the cell.
How do nuclear atoms differ from regular atoms?
All atoms are nuclear, in that they all have nuclei. Some atoms have unstable nuclei, making them radioactive. I'm afraid I have no idea what you mean by "nuclear atoms," unless you meant to say radioactive atoms, in which case the answer is "they have unstable nuclei and they're radioactive."
Mitosis makes how many daughter cells?
1Two daughter nuclei are produced. They are identical cell nuclei
