What our daughter isotopes?
"Daughter isotopes" are called the decay products of an radioactive isotope.
Is it true that a stable radioactive isotope called the parent will decay and form daughter products?
1. All the radioactive isotopes are unstable ! 2. Yes, it is true, the parent isotope (radioactive and unstable) decay and form daughter products.
What is given off by radioactive elements such as radium and Plutonium?
From these isotopes decay products are obtained and also ionizing radiations.
Gaseous products of a disintegrating radioactive substance such as thoron or radon?
The gaseous products of a disintegrating radioactive substance such as thoron or radon usually include isotopes of helium or polonium. These isotopes are formed as a result of radioactive decay and are emitted in the form of gas. They can pose a health risk if inhaled, as they are radioactive and can accumulate in the lungs.
How become uranium to krypton and barium?
Krypton (isotopes 83 to 86) and barium (isotopes 138 and 139) are fission products of uranium, resulting from the nuclear fission of uranium atom nucleus.

Why can radioactive isotopes be followed through a chemical reaction?
They emit radiation that can be detected with various radiation measurement tools. Usually the isotopes will be in only one of the products of the chemical reaction, making it radioactive and the others nonradioactive.

Elements after which element are radioactive?
The atoms that are radioactive are those with unstable nuclei. There is no easy way to tell which is which, so the isotope has to be looked up. All elements have at least some radioactive isotopes. There are 36 elements for which all radioactive isotopes are synthetic or fission products, so for practical purposes, there are no radioactive isotopes of them in nature, except where introduced by human activity. They include most of the common elements we find in nature, but not all. There are 44 elements that are found as stable isotopes, but at least traces of radioactive isotopes are found in nature. Among these are hydrogen, carbon, sodium, silicon, chlorine, and potassium, all of which are necessary for life. Radioactive potassium, in particular, is present as 0.012% of all potassium. For another group of elements, including technetium, promethium, and all with atomic numbers of 83 (bismuth) or more, there is no isotope that is stable.
How do scientists use the halflife of radioactive isotopes to date rocks and fossils?
The basic idea is to compare the abundance of a naturally occurring radioactive isotope within a material to the abundance of its decay products; it is known how fast the radioactive isotope decays.

Krypton (isotopes 83 to 86) and barium (isotopes 138 and 139) are fission products of uranium, resulting from the nuclear fission of uranium atom nucleus.
What are the products of bohrium?
The decay products of bohrium isotopes are dubnium isotopes.
Are the products of nuclear fussion radioactive?
no, but the products of fission are radioactive
What element is radioactive and explosive?
There are at least 50 different elements produced in a nuclear explosion, most are fission products in 2 peaks, some are formed by neutron capture and beta decay. The majority of these are radioactive isotopes of the elements.
Why is lead mixed in with all deposits of uranium?
Because the stable isotopes of lead are the end products of the decay chain of uranium natural radioactive isotopes. or because lead is the product of decayed uranium... that should be a good enough answer for your chem teacher you cheater!
