Metals can be detected and determined by neutron activation analysis; some installations for NAA (especially mobile instruments) use californium-252 isotope as a strong source of neutrons.
Californium is not flammable, as it is a radioactive metal that does not support combustion.
Californium is a soft metal.
Californium typically forms compounds with ligands to stabilize its high radioactivity. Some common molecules containing californium are californium chloride (CfCl3), californium nitrate (Cf(NO3)3), and californium dioxide (CfO2).
I believe there is only one element named after a state, and that is Californium. However, there is in fact an element named Berkelium (check spelling?) that originates from Berkely, Calfornia.
Californium commonly forms compounds such as californium oxide (Cf2O3) and californium chloride (CfCl3). These compounds are primarily used in scientific research due to californium's radioactive properties.
Californium can be used as a neutron source to detect impurities in gold and silver ores. By irradiating them with neutrons, the elements present emit characteristic gamma rays, allowing for their identification and quantification. This process helps ensure the purity and quality of gold and silver products.
Not californium, but neutrons emitted by californium.
yes, that is the term gold ''Detector"" definition of detector: an object that detects something http://detectorsforgold.com/gold/
All the isotopes of californium are radioactive, artificial and unstable.
Californium has 98 protons.
Californium is radioactive and a strong neutrons emitter; californium can be lethal.
