What is a radioisotope in chem?
Radioactive isotopes.
What is the major difference between isotopes?
Different numbers of neutrons, e.g. deuterium and tritium are isotopes of hydrogen.
What are isotopes which send off charged particles and radiant energy from their nuclei called?
It is called a radioisotope.
Which radioisotope emits an alpha particle?
Polonium-210 is an example of a radioisotope that emits alpha particles.
What is radioisotope-dating?
A way to estimate a fossil's age by analyzing the elemental isotopes within the rock it's in.
The main difference between isotopes of the sameelement has to do with the number?
mass number
What do two neutral isotopes of the element have in common?
The same numbers of protons and of electrons; the difference between isotopes is in the number of neutrons.
How do scientist tell the different between two isotopes of the same element?
scientists Can tell the difference between two isotopes of the same element because, isotopes of the same elements always have the same number of protons.
What is An unstable isotope is called what?
It isn't really an ELEMENT that is unstable, but an ISOTOPE. That means that in general, for the same element, some atoms will decay, and some will not - the difference being the number of neutrons in the nucleus.
What is the difference between radioisotopes and radionuclide?
Radioisotope and radionuclide are often used interchangeably, but there is a subtle difference. A radioisotope is a type of isotope that emits radiation, while a radionuclide is an atomic nucleus that is unstable and emits radiation. In essence, all radioisotopes are radionuclides, but not all radionuclides are necessarily radioisotopes.
Can 2 isotopes of the same element differ in the number of electrons?
No. The only difference between 2 isotopes of the same element is the number of neutrons.
What is the half lie of a radioisotope?
The half-life of a radioisotope is the time it takes for half of the radioactive nuclei in a sample to decay. It is a characteristic property of each radioisotope and determines the rate at which the isotopes decay.
