What is a radioactive atoms?
A radioactive atom is an atom that has an unstable nuclear force, and therefore either absorbs or emits a radioactive particle.
Is a lifting force necessary to form a thunderstorm?
Yes.Three basic ingredients are required for a thunderstorm to form: moisture, rising/unstable air, and a lifting mechanism to force this rising air higher and faster.
Why radioactive materials are unstable?
Radioactive metals are unstable as their nuclei is large and do not have a strong binding force as the smaller elements. If a neutron is collided onto a radioactive nuclei, they split into smaller atoms like Uranium splits into Barium and Krypton. Since they are unstable, they have a half life of varying times which range from the age of the earth to nanoseconds for recently discovered elements
Is radon 222 unstable or stable?
no because it is so radioative its so unstable.
What triggers an unstable nucleus to decay?
When a nucleus is unstable it has either too many or too few neutrons in the nucleus. This is what causes nuclear decay as the nucleus needs to have the correct ratio of neutrons to protons to be stable. It may be triggered by an outside force, such as a colliding particle, or simply by chance.
What is it called when large unstable nuclei split because the electric force is greater than the nuclear force?
When large unstable nuclei split because the electric for is greater than the nuclear force is nuclear decay.
Large nuclei are unstable because the nuclear force does what?
natural radioactivity
When large unstable nuclei split because the electric force is greater than the nuclear force is what?
Natural radioactivity.
What makes a nucleus unstable?
The strong nuclear force doesn't balance the electrostatic force.
What has role in neutrons changing into protons and electrons into unstable atoms?
strong force
Are there unstable crystals and a black crystal for the Wii star wars the force unleashed?
no
When large unstable nuclei split because the electric force is greater than the nuclear force this is called?
Nuclear decay
What is it called when nuclear force is greater than the electric force when large unstable nuclei split?
it is called natural radioactivity
Large nuclei are unstable because the nuclear force?
o Decreases as protons move farther apart
What is a radioactive atoms?
A radioactive atom is an atom that has an unstable nuclear force, and therefore either absorbs or emits a radioactive particle.
Why is mercury-194 the unstable one I thought it was molybdenum-98 since the neutrons are LESS than protons and therefore don't balance out the strong/electric force between protons and neutrons. How do you determine which isotopes are unstable?
yes
Is a lifting force necessary to form a thunderstorm?
Yes.Three basic ingredients are required for a thunderstorm to form: moisture, rising/unstable air, and a lifting mechanism to force this rising air higher and faster.
