What else can I help you with?
Can one element change into a different element?
Yes, but only if it is radioactive. Radioactive elements change into different elements through radioactive decay.
Which are unstable elements that decay or break down into different elements?
Radioactive
What are 2 radioactiv elements?
There are different types of elements in the world including the dangerous radioactive ones. Two of the radioactive elements in the world are hydrogen and carbon.
Are all elements periodically change to become new element s?
No. Only radioactive elements, which undergo radioactive decay can change to different elements.
Which are unstable elements that decay or break down into differt elements?
Unstable elements that decay or break down into different elements are called radioactive elements. These elements have an unstable atomic nucleus that undergoes radioactive decay, transforming into a different element and releasing energy in the process. Examples of radioactive elements include uranium, radium, and plutonium.
What makes technetium different from the surrounding elements?
The difference is that technetium is radioactive.
What can be categorized into different types of elements?
Examples: metals or nonmetals, radioactive or not radioactive, classification after the state of matter, reactive or not reactive etc.
Do trace elements have to be radioactive?
No, trace elements are not necessarily radioactive. A link to a list of elements that have no natural radioactive isotopes is at a related question, below.
Radioactive elements comprise a majority?
Radioactive elements make up a small fraction of all naturally occurring elements in Earth's crust. Most elements are stable and non-radioactive. However, even though they are a minority, radioactive elements play important roles in various scientific, medical, and industrial applications.
When elements such as uranium and plutonium decay do they form different elements chemical reactions or larger compounds?
When an element "decays", it forms a different element. This is the definition of "decay" when referring to radioactive elements.
What made up all radioactive elements?
After disintegration all radioactive elements are transformed in other elements.
Are all transition elements are radioactive?
Not all of the transition elements are radioactive. Many of them are, and some of them have common radioactive isotopes, but some of them have no naturally occurring radioactive isotopes. Please note that all elements have synthetic radioactive isotopes, at least.
