What is the safest element?

Most elements are completely stable and safe. However, the safest elements would be the most unreactive. So, in that sense, the Inert Gases (exc. Radon, which is radioactive) are probably the safest group of elements, as they are completely unreactive.


Where did the element xenon come from?

It came mostly from nova and supernova explosions. It was also produced by red giants which had burned up their hydrogen and entered the asymptotic giant phase.Nova explosions also produced radioactive isotopes and xenon can be produced by radioactive decay of iodine, uranium and plutonium.


What characterizes a radioactive element?

As radioactive element is an element that is on the Priodic Table of Elements. A Radioactive Element is usually radioactive.


Are radioactive elements made in a laboratory?

What an interesting question. The answer is however complex.It is possible to make small amounts of some radioactive elements or radioactive isotopes of some elements in a laboratory (usually involving a nuclear pile or an accelerator). For instance the element Plutonium is made this way.(Other radioactive elements are produced naturally by the radioactive decay of heavier radioactive elements)However, making a radioactive element or isotope from scratch requires the application of an enormous amount of energy. The place where all elements heavier than the element Iron (Fe - Atomic number 26) are made is in stellar explosions, the death of stars 8 or more times more massive than our Sun, called "supernovas".It is in supernova explosions that the radioactive elements are made.


What is odd element in noble gases?

The odd element in the noble gases is Radon. This is because it is radioactive, and all the others are highly unreactive.


Is tin natural or lab created?

Tin is a naturally occurring metallic element. It is only created in supernova explosions. Radioactive tin can be created in nuclear reactors.


What is the origin of the element Xenon?

It came mostly from nova and supernova explosions. It was also produced by red giants which had burned up their hydrogen and entered the asymptotic giant phase. Nova explosions also produced radioactive isotopes of various other elements and xenon can be produced by radioactive decay of iodine, uranium and plutonium.


Is the element sodium radioactive or non-radioactive?

non radioactive element


What is an element that is unreactive odorless and colorless?

How do you use radioactive element in a sentence?

A radioactive element is one that discharges radiation. Uranium is a radioactive element. A radioactive element is very dangerous if you don't have protective clothing. You should never go near a radioactive element.


What is the most useless element periodic table?

Protactiniumand Francium have no known uses outside the lab. Protactinuium is an unwanted natural byproduct of uranium decay. Francium is radioactive and very unstable.
