Can large nuclei undergo the process of nuclear fission?
By capture of a neutron, causing the nucleus to be unstable and to split into two parts
What is the process by which an unstable isotope will emit nuclear radiation until it has a stable number of protons and neutrons called?
radioactive decay
What does being radioactive mean?
Exhibiting or caused by radioactivity.Radioactivity: the spontaneous emission of a stream of particles or electromagnetic rays in nuclear decay.Examples are radioactive isotopes [an unstable nucleus that undergoes radioactive decay], radioactive dating [the process by which the approximate age of an object is determined based on the amount of certain radioactive nuclides present], and radioactive decay [the spontaneous disintegration of a nucleus into a slightly lighter and more stable nucleus, accompanied by emission of particles, electromagnetic radiation, or both.]
Is the decay of unstable isotopes always the same process?
Yes, for the specified isotope; but the process is statistic.
What is the process in which an unstable atomic nucleus emits charged particles or energy or both?
It is the process of Radioactivity.
What term indicates the process in which unstable nuclei releases radiation?
The term is "radioactive decay".
Does radiation travel any direction?
Yes. Radiation travels in all directions, however, it can be collimated, so as to be coerced into traveling in one direction, but that is not a process of the emitting nuclide.
Process which unstable nuclei emit radiation is called?
This process through which unstable nuclei emit radiation is called radioactive decay. It also is called nuclear decay, and it is a natural process in which an atom of an isotope decomposes into a new element.
What is the spontaneous process through which unstable nuclei emit radiation?
Radioactive decay or radioactivity
What is the process in which the nuclei of unstable atoms can become more stable by emitting particles or electromagnetic radiation?
The process described is radioactive decay.
Can large nuclei undergo the process of nuclear fission?
By capture of a neutron, causing the nucleus to be unstable and to split into two parts
What is the process when nuclei of unstable isotopes realese fast moving paricles and energy?
radioactive decay with emission of radiation
What is the process by which an unstable isotope will emit nuclear radiation until it has a stable number of protons and neutrons called?
radioactive decay
Which is the thermally unstable compound?
A compound is a group of two or more elements Unstable means it is highly reactive, and can condense, decompose, polymerize, or become self-reactive quite easily due to pressure or temperature
What does destabilize mean?
To come unstable; to be in the process of becoming unstable.
What does being radioactive mean?
Exhibiting or caused by radioactivity.Radioactivity: the spontaneous emission of a stream of particles or electromagnetic rays in nuclear decay.Examples are radioactive isotopes [an unstable nucleus that undergoes radioactive decay], radioactive dating [the process by which the approximate age of an object is determined based on the amount of certain radioactive nuclides present], and radioactive decay [the spontaneous disintegration of a nucleus into a slightly lighter and more stable nucleus, accompanied by emission of particles, electromagnetic radiation, or both.]
What is beta radiation properties?
Beta particles or radiation is an electron emitted at high speed or energy from some types of unstable elements in a process known as beta-decay. Beta radiation is not healthy for living things. It is usually stopped by a few millimeters of metal, wood, or plastic. Direct exposure to the skin can cause radiation burns.
