When radioactive isotopes break down into other elements the process is called?
radioactive decay
What are three types of nuclear decay?
The main three types are: Alpha, beta, and gamma nuclear radioactive decay. refer to the related question below.
How does half life work in the context of radioactive decay?
In the context of radioactive decay, half-life is the time it takes for half of the radioactive atoms in a sample to decay. This means that after one half-life, half of the original radioactive atoms have decayed, and after two half-lives, three-quarters have decayed, and so on. The concept of half-life helps scientists understand the rate of decay of radioactive substances.
Does Argon Decay?
There are over twenty known isotopes of argon. Of these all but three are radioactive and decay. Of naturally occurring argon, very nearly 100% is not radioactive, with only traces of one radioactive isotope found.
How is the radioactive decay of Krypton different from the radioactive decay of Americium?
The radioactive decay of americium 241 is by alpha disintegration; the disintegration of radioactive krypton isotopes is by beta particles emission.
What three products of radioactive decay?
alpha particles, beta particles, gamma radiation
What term indicates the process in which unstable nuclide release radiation?
If it is related to Nuclear studies, then the answer would be fusion.
What is lost during radioactive decay?
Decay energy is the energy that has been freed during radioactive decay. When radioactive decay is ongoing it drops off some energy by means of discharging radiation.
What are advantages of radioactive decay?
One reason is that radioactive decay heats the earths interior
Radioactive decay do not involve electrons?
That statement is not entirely accurate. Radioactive decay can involve the emission of alpha particles, beta particles (electrons or positrons), and gamma rays. Electrons can be involved in certain types of radioactive decay processes.
