What term indicates the process in which unstable nuclide release radiation?
If it is related to Nuclear studies, then the answer would be fusion.
What is an autoradiolysis?
An autoradiolysis is the process of radiolysis of a radioactive compound resulting from its own radioactive decay.
Is spontaneous fusion a form of radioactive decay?
No, the fusion process is the opposite of the radioactive decay process. Fusion is the merging together of nuclei to form a heavier nucleus whereas fission or radioactive decay is the splitting apart of a heavy nucleus into lighter daughter nuclei.
Why wouldn't heating radioactive uranium make it decay faster?
The thermal energy is minimal compared to nuclear energy; and the radioactive decay is not a thermodynamic process - it is nuclear physics process.
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
When radioactive isotopes break down into other elements the process is called?
radioactive decay
What process is a radioactive decay?
The process of a radioactive decay is atomic nucleus of an unstable atom loses energy by emitting ionizing particles
What kind of process is radioactive decay?
It is a nuclear process.
What term indicates the process in which unstable nuclide release radiation?
If it is related to Nuclear studies, then the answer would be fusion.
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 an autoradiolysis?
An autoradiolysis is the process of radiolysis of a radioactive compound resulting from its own radioactive decay.
Does the process of radioactive decay fall under the study of chemistry or physics or is it a combination of both?
Radioactive decay falls under chemistry, because the chemical properties of the substance are changed during radioactive decay.
Is spontaneous fusion a form of radioactive decay?
No, the fusion process is the opposite of the radioactive decay process. Fusion is the merging together of nuclei to form a heavier nucleus whereas fission or radioactive decay is the splitting apart of a heavy nucleus into lighter daughter nuclei.
Why wouldn't heating radioactive uranium make it decay faster?
The thermal energy is minimal compared to nuclear energy; and the radioactive decay is not a thermodynamic process - it is nuclear physics process.
What is the process by which some substances spontaniously emit radiation?
All elements with an atomic number >83 are naturally radioactive
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
Process atoms use to become stable?
Radioactive decay
