which process & which isotope u mention
1. nuclear reaction U235 & Pu239
U didn't mention which process
No, most isotopes are not stable. Many isotopes are radioactive and decay over time, releasing radiation in the process. Only a few isotopes are stable and do not undergo radioactive decay.
Yes, for the specified isotope; but the process is statistic.
Measuring the radioacivity of these isotopes can be tracked the course of a technological process because radioisotopes migrate themselves.

Radioisotopes are unstable isotopes that undergo radioactive decay, emitting particles and/or energy in the process. This distinguishes them from stable isotopes that do not undergo radioactive decay. Radioisotopes are often used in medicine, industry, and research for various applications due to their unique properties related to their decay process.
carbon dating
Scientists use a method called radiometric dating to calculate the ages of rocks and fossils based on the amount of radioactive isotopes present in them. This process relies on measuring the decay of unstable isotopes into stable isotopes over time to determine the age of the material.
tracer
Isotopes are used to create energy in at least two ways: # The isotopes are allowed to heat water into steam, and the steam turns a generator. # The isotopes are allowed to heat one end of a "thermopile", and the thermopile powers electronics. (This is how the deep space probes get their power.)
The separation of isotopes is relatively easy for light elements as hydrogen, lithium, nitrogen etc. For elements with higher atomic weight and a small difference between the atomic masses of the isotopes the process is long and expensive. The insignificant differences between these isotopes doesn't facilitate the separation.
Radioactive dating is based on the natural process of radioactive decay, whereby unstable isotopes of elements decay into more stable isotopes over time. By measuring the amount of parent and daughter isotopes in a sample, scientists can determine the age of the material. This method is commonly used in geology and archaeology to date rocks and artifacts.
