What else can I help you with?
True or false unstable atom that decomposes and emits energy is called retroactive?
No, it's called "radioactive." "Retroactive" is something that's active in regards to the past.
Was atom split at Birmingham university U.K?
No, the splitting of the atom did not occur at the University of Birmingham in the UK. The first experimental demonstration of nuclear fission, which involved splitting the atom, took place at the University of Chicago in the US in 1942.
What is the process of splitting an atom called?
The process of splitting an atom is called nuclear fission. This is when the nucleus of an atom is split into two or more smaller nuclei, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. Nuclear fission is the process that powers nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons.
Which atoms will always be radioactive?
There is no specific atom that will always be radioactive. Any atom with an unstable nucleus can be radioactive, resulting in the emission of radiation. Isotopes of certain elements, such as uranium and plutonium, are more likely to be radioactive due to their relatively large atomic numbers.
What is the energy produced when an atom is split apart?
Energy is neither created nor destroyed. It is simply converted from one form to another. In nuclear fission (the splitting of atoms) the nucleus is split into two or more parts. The binding energy that represented the parent nucleus is now split into three or more parts - the binding energy that represents the two new nucleuses - and the residual binding energy that is left over. The residual energy is often represented as heat and radiation.
When radioactive decay occurs a atom is always produced by the action?
During any type of radioactive decay, one isotope (type of atom) will convert into a different isotope.
What is produced directly from the splitting of water?
Splitting water results in oxygen and hydrogen. The water element is separated into two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
What is a process in which nuclei of radioactive atoms are split?
process of an atom splitting into pieces because he has not any other about this thing
When was the bomb discovered?
First the radioactive material and split the atom. So it is not a discovery is was hard work.
What radioactive material is used in the construction of the atom bomb?
their is no radioactive material in the construction of any bomb its just a bunch of atoms creating friction and being so excited that they explode in a devistating amount of force.
What is produced energy?
Energy cannot be "produced", energy cannot be made or destroyed, though we can harvest energy from the wind, sun, fossil fuels and even from splitting an atom
Where are the radioactive alpha beta and gamma radiation made?
Radioactive alpha, beta, and gamma radiation are produced during the decay of certain types of unstable atomic nuclei, such as those of radioactive elements like uranium or radium. These types of radiation can also be produced in nuclear reactions, such as those that occur in nuclear power plants or in nuclear weapons.
Fission is the splitting of an .?
Atom.
Are synthetic elements radioactive?
Some synthetic elements are naturally radioactive due to their unstable atomic structures. For example, elements beyond uranium on the periodic table are typically artificially produced and tend to be radioactive. These elements can emit radiation as they undergo radioactive decay.
If a substance is radioactive is its compound radioactive?
Yes. A radioactive atom is a radioactive atom. If that atom exists as a single atom and is uncombined and it is radioactive, it's radioactive. If that same atom is chemically combined with another or other atoms, it's still radioactive. It's just that simple.
True or false unstable atom that decomposes and emits energy is called retroactive?
No, it's called "radioactive." "Retroactive" is something that's active in regards to the past.
Over time what will happend to the radioactive atom?
They experience radioactive decay. They emit radiation, changing the state of their nucleus, usually by the loss of protons and neutrons. However, this process is completely random; it can only be predicted as a half-life, or the amount of time it takes half of a certain material to decay. This does not predict when an individual atom will decay, it only predicts when approximately half of the material will have decayed.
