What are the hazards to francium?
The main hazard is its radioactivity. It is so radioactive it will vaporize itself because of the tremendous heat made by its radioactivity, but you don't have to worry about it since you can't even collect a nanogram of it.
What has heat flow got to do with radioactivity?
The primal heat from the deep interior of the Earth is mainly due to radioactive decay, with a small contribution due to gravity compression.
Which type of radioactivity would be most dangerous if you were exposed to it from a source outside of your body?
Gamma radioactivity would be the most dangerous because, unlike alpha particles that can be blocked by paper or skin, and beta particles which can be shielded by foil, gamma radioactivity would need a lead shield. Plus gamma radioactivity effects organic material.
What type of power plant most exposes us to radioactivity coal or nuclear plants?
nuclear plants because the fission reaction releases lots of radioactive particles causing radioactivity..
