What else can I help you with?
Is a neutron a nonmetal or a metal or a metalloid?
A neutron is a fundamental part of the nucleus of all atoms and is hence contained within a non metal a metal or a metalloid
What is the main purpose of polonium metal?
When it is mixed or alloyed with beryllium, polonium can be a neutron source: beryllium releases a neutron upon absorption of an alpha particle that is supplied by 210Po. It has been used in this capacity as a neutron trigger or initiator for nuclear weapons
Which gun shot residue metal will be detected by atomic absorption but not neutron activation?
Lead is a metal in gunshot residue that can be detected by atomic absorption but not neutron activation. This is because atomic absorption spectroscopy relies on the absorption of light by ground-state atoms, which lead exhibits. Neutron activation analysis, on the other hand, requires the irradiation of samples with neutrons to induce radioactivity, which is not applicable to lead.
Metal used in control rods of nuclear reactor?
Usually boron is alloyed with steel, boron is a very good neutron absorber.
What 4 tests could you do to find out what type of metal something is?
Well, a neutron activation analysis test can find this out all in a single test.
What particle in the nucleus of an atom has no charge?
you already partly answered your own question. Neutrons.
Dysprosium?
A rare-earth metal with the symbol Dy and atomic number 66. It is a metal with a metallic silver luster and a high thermal neutron absorption cross-section. Dysprosium has seven isotopes, the most abundant of which is 164 Dy. It is used for its high thermal neutron absorption cross-section in nuclear reactors and its high magnetic susceptibility in data-storage applications.
What is the name of jimmy neutron's mom?
Judy neutron
Is a neutron positive charged?
No. A neutron carries no charge.
What is a name of an atom that has a positive or negative neutron?
There is no such thing as a "positive neutron" or a "negative neutron". A neutron is always neutral.
What are important uses of the element californium?
Some applications of californium: - neutron source as Cf-Be source - neutron source for neutron activation analysis (portable installations) - neutron radiography - irradiation for some cancers treatment - nuclear fuel rod scanning - neutron source to detect water, petroleum, metals, methane etc.
What did James chadwick do?
James chadwick was the discoverer of neutron. He gave the famous neutron reaction.
