What else can I help you with?
Is conversion by radioactive decay a chemical reaction?
No. It is a nuclear reaction - radioactive disintegration.
Are radioactive reactions redox reaction?
Radioactive reaction is a red-ox reaction. This is a nuclear decay.
What happens to the radioactive isotopes that are released in a nuclear reaction?
they decay over time
Is the parent element always radioactive in a nuclear reaction?
No, the parent element in a nuclear reaction is not always radioactive. While many parent isotopes are indeed radioactive and decay into stable or unstable daughter isotopes, there are also stable isotopes that can undergo nuclear reactions without being radioactive themselves. For example, stable isotopes can be involved in nuclear reactions such as neutron capture or fusion, but they do not decay over time like radioactive isotopes.
The splitting of nuclei of atoms is called .?
The splitting of nuclei of atoms is called nuclear fission. This process is categorized as either a nuclear reaction or a radioactive decay reaction.
Are there any non examples of radioactive decay?
Nuclear fusion and nuclear fission are processes that involve nuclear reactions but are not examples of radioactive decay. Chemical reactions, such as burning wood, do not involve nuclear processes and are also not examples of radioactive decay.
Is radioactive decay and nuclear decay the same?
yep, sure are
What does radioactive decay do for the sun?
not much, the main nuclear reaction happening in the sun is fusion not decay. the sun is composed almost entirely of hydrogen, deuterium, and helium; all of which are stable and do not decay.
What is splitting of atomic nuclei?
Splitting of atomic nuclei, also known as nuclear fission, is a nuclear reaction in which the nucleus of an atom is split into smaller parts. This process releases a significant amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation. Nuclear fission is used in nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons.
Radioactive decay is chemical reaction or?
it is type of nuclear reaction because nucleus is involve in this type of reaction while in ordinary chemical reaction only valance electron of atoms involve
What is it called when atoms are unstable and undergo a nuclear decay?
radioactive decay
What is the transformation of uranium?
- radioactive decay - nuclear fission - nuclear reactions
