Isotope 225Ac: is used in radiation therapy of cancers.
Isotope 227Ac: is used in neutron sources (Ac, Be). Also useful for hydrological study of seas and oceans.
Actinium is used primarily in medical research, especially in cancer treatment through targeted alpha therapy. It can also be used as a neutron source and in certain specialized applications in the field of nuclear physics.
Actinium is a solid at room temperature.
Actinium (Ac) Atomic Number: 89 Atomic Weight: 227 Protons: 89 Electrons: 89 Neutrons: 138 -----(227-89=138)
No, actinium is not a metalloid. It is a radioactive metal element that belongs to the actinide series on the periodic table.
Actinium is not very soluble in water. Its solubility is extremely low, with only a small fraction of actinium ions forming in a dissolved state in water.
Applications of actinium are: - neutron source as actinium-beryllium - radiotherapy
Practically actinium has not applications outside of research laboratories. Actinium-225 can be used as a radiation source in radiotherapy.
Actinium hasn't important applications:- actinium-227/beryllium neutron source- determination of Ac-227 in ocean waters help to understand the vertical movements of water- actinium-225 was studied for cancer radiotherapy
Actinium has only rare applications: 227Ac in neutron sources, as Ac-Be. 225Ac in radiotherapy of cancers 227Ac as tracer in oceanography But actinium is rare, expensive and radioactive; perhaps I consider that actinium is good for science.

Actinium (Ac) is a chemical element with the atomic number 89, located in the actinide series of the periodic table. It is a radioactive metal that is primarily used in research and some specialized industrial applications.
Actinium is a trivalent metal; only in the actinium hydride is divalent.
Possible uses: neutron source, alpha rays source for radio-therapy
Actinium has several practical uses, including in nuclear reactors, medicine (cancer treatment), and scientific research. Its isotopes are used in radiation therapy to target and destroy cancer cells. Therefore, actinium has contributed to improving society by advancing medical treatments and scientific research.
Actinium may be used in actinium-beryllium neutron sources or in radiotherapy.
Actinium is rarely used:- as actinium-beryllium neutron source- in radiotherapy
