Disadvantages of using Sodium-24
- Sodium-24 is non-naturally occurring radioisotope, it relies on commercial production in nuclear reactors and poses the same threats that nuclear reactors have. i.e. nuclear fallout and disasters.
- Having a short lifespan also prevents the area of testing from being very far from the source.
- Radioisotopes have long term effects and implications to workers handling the substance, without proper care in transportation and handling Sodium24 can cause biological damage, which may result in tissue damage or cancer.

Which notation represents an atom of sodium with an atomic number of 11 and mass number of 24?
An atom of sodium with an atomic number of 11 and mass number of 24 is 2411Na.
What kind of radiation does sodium - 24 emit?
Sodium-24 emits beta radiation. This consists of high-speed electrons that are released during the radioactive decay process of sodium-24. Beta radiation is capable of penetrating skin and causing damage to living tissue.
How many nucleons are in the isotope of calcium?

What is the atomic number and the mass number for the chromium isotope with 28 neutrons?
The atomic number for chromium is 24. To find the mass number, you sum the number of protons (atomic number) and neutrons. Since this isotope of chromium has 28 neutrons, the mass number would be 24 (protons) + 28 (neutrons) = 52.

Is sodium an isotope?
Sodium does not have naturally occurring radioactive isotopes - as it has only 1 naturally occurring isotope, which has 11 protons and 12 neutrons, and is not radioactive. However, the 18 other known types of sodium isotopes are all radioactive, and sodium-22 (the most stable radioactive sodium isotope) has a half life of 2.6 years.
How many protons and neutrons are there in sodium?
