What happens if you touch radioactive material?

It gets frozen. None of its other properties are affected. It is still radioactive material.


What will happen to a radioactive material when it is heated and at what point will it burn out completely?

Just like any other material, it gets warmer, most likely expands, and may transition from solid to liquid and/or from liquid to gas. If it's already in the gaseous state, then its pressure increases. Its rate of radioactive decay is not affected.


How can radioactive contamination occur?

Radioactive contamination is also known as radiological contamination. It is the deposition, or presence of radioactive substances on surfaces within solids, liquids, or gases. There presence is unintended or undesirable.


What happens to the cooling water in a normally functioning nuclear plant does it all become radioactive eventually and how is it treated?

Water itself does not become radioactive, luckily, but any dissolved material in the water in the reactor primary circuit gets irradiated by the neutron flux and so can become radioactive. Therefore it is very important to control the water purity, it is all treated in a demineralisation plant, but then that is normal practice for power plants anyway, the difference in a nuclear plant is that the removed material can be radioactive. The secondary water/steam system in a PWR will not become radioactive, neither will the station cooling water used to cool the turbine condenser.
