When an isotope is it is called radioactive?
Some isotopes are radioactive, some are not.
What is the processes where an unstable parent isotope becomes a stable daughter isotope called?
Succesive radioactive disintegrations in a radioactive series.
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 time needed for half of a radioactive isotope to break down to form daughter isotope?
It's called "half life".
What our daughter isotopes?
"Daughter isotopes" are called the decay products of an radioactive isotope.
What is the stable isotope that is formed by the breakdown of a radioactive isotope?
That's called a daughter isotope, or a daughter product. (The original isotope that decayed is the parent isotope.)
What is the product of radioactive decay called?
Product of radioactive decay 42He is an alpha particle
When an isotope is it is called radioactive?
Some isotopes are radioactive, some are not.
What reactors produces heat and a new supply of the radioactive isotope Pu-239?
A type of reactor called a "Fast Breeder" reactor.
What is the processes where an unstable parent isotope becomes a stable daughter isotope called?
Succesive radioactive disintegrations in a radioactive series.
The time required for half of a sample of a radioactive isotope to break down by radioactive decay to form a daughter isotope.?
its called Half-Time...
What is an unstable atom that emits energy called?
This is a radioactive isotope.
What is the product of a radioactive decay called?
The product.
What property of a radioactive isotope is the length of time it takes half of the nuclei to decay?
This is called the "half-life" of the isotope.
