Best Answer

No radioactive isotopes of neon are ordinarily found in nature. All elements have radioactive synthetic isotopes, however.

Is neon radioactive or explosive or neither?

Neon is usually not radioactive in its native form, but can be in several isotops, and on the countary not explosive. These elements of that colum of the peridic system are the most stable ones, The Fuehrer wished to have some of it, for his Hindenburg Air-Battle-Cruiser.


Is argon and neon a oxygen or uranium?

* argon and neon: noble gases * oxygen: gas, chalcogens group * uranium: radioactive metal, actinoids family


If a sample of neon gas occupies a volume of 2.8L at 180Pa what will its volume be at 120Pa?

N/A if you had neon gas to begin with, you would be radioactive. I would know these things you see.


Which of these elements tend to be radioactive Am Ne K and U?

Am (Americium) and U (Uranium) both radio active. Ne (Neon) is an inert/noble gas. K (Potassium - latin ;Kalium) is not radioactive.

Of those, neon is the most chemically stable (least reactive).But for elements, the term stable usually means non-radioactive, and all of these elements have stable isotopes.


Does neon have any isotopes and why?

Neon isotopes can be used in dating meteoric rock and to investigate the creation of some isotopes in space.


Is neodymium radioactive?

Neodymium is radioactive, though for most practical purposes it can be regarded as stable. 30.4% of neodymium is of two radioactive isotopes, but their half lives are very long, the shorter being 2,290,000,000,000,000 years. Like all other elements, neodymium has synthetic radioactive isotopes.


What is the number of neutrons for neon?

The number of neutrons depends on which isotope you are talking about. Neon possesses three stable isotopes, 20Ne, 21Ne, and 22Ne. In addition, 16 radioactive isotopes have been discovered ranging from 16Ne to 34Ne, all short-lived. The average observed atomic weight of neon is about 20.1797 because about 90% of all neon comes in the form of 20Ne so it would be reasonable to say that a typical Neon atom would have 10 protons and 10 neutrons in the nucleus.
