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.
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.
The pressure and heat that produces magma are caused in part by?
Radioactive elements
What families have no radioactive elements?
Radioactive elements exist in all groups of the periodic table.
What are elements with no stable isotopes called?
Elements with no stable isotopes are called radioactive elements. These elements spontaneously undergo radioactive decay, which leads to the formation of stable isotopes over time.
What element family have no radioactive elements?
Radioactive elements exist in all groups of the periodic table.
How are elements made by man harmful?
Most of the elements, that are made by man, are highly unstable and extremely reactive. This means that they are mostly radioactive and definitely could pose a great risk to health.
Is rutherfordium harmful?
Rutherfordium is a synthetic element and its properties are not well-studied. However, it is expected to be highly radioactive and potentially harmful due to its radioactive decay. As with other radioactive elements, proper safety measures and handling protocols should be followed to minimize the risk of exposure.
Can one element change into a different element?
Yes, but only if it is radioactive. Radioactive elements change into different elements through radioactive decay.
Are synthetic elements radioactive?
Some synthetic elements are naturally radioactive due to their unstable atomic structures. For example, elements beyond uranium on the periodic table are typically artificially produced and tend to be radioactive. These elements can emit radiation as they undergo radioactive decay.
