What element named for Marie Carie's home country of Poland?
pedophilium. It has been named after the native country of Marie Curie, the element's discoverer.
How does polonium effects us today?
Very little. It is a rare radioactive element
What is a plutonium?
A radioactive element with several isotopes that always has 94 protons within its nucleus.
Are radioactive elements made in a laboratory?
What an interesting question. The answer is however complex.It is possible to make small amounts of some radioactive elements or radioactive isotopes of some elements in a laboratory (usually involving a nuclear pile or an accelerator). For instance the element Plutonium is made this way.(Other radioactive elements are produced naturally by the radioactive decay of heavier radioactive elements)However, making a radioactive element or isotope from scratch requires the application of an enormous amount of energy. The place where all elements heavier than the element Iron (Fe - Atomic number 26) are made is in stellar explosions, the death of stars 8 or more times more massive than our Sun, called "supernovas".It is in supernova explosions that the radioactive elements are made.
What is the scientist Marie Curie known for?
discovery of the elements Radium and Poloniumstudying the decay chains from the radioactive element Uranium down to the stable element Lead
Is astatine an example of radioactive element?
Yes. There are no stable isotopes of astatine, they are all radioactive.
What element has all of their isotopes radioactive?
An example is uranium.
Uranium is an example of what?
Uranium is an example of an actinde; also uranium is a solid metal, radioactive, a natural chemical element.
Is the element sodium radioactive or non-radioactive?
non radioactive element
Does a radioactive element become stable after its mass number become less than 82?
Not always -- Hydrogen-3 is radioactive, for example.
Is uranium a example of a radioactive element?
All elements have radioactive isotopes. Add a couple of hundred neutrons, and any stable element becomes radioactive.Technetium, promethium, and anything heavier than bismuth (element 83) will have radioactive decay.radio active elements can be uranium,radium,thorium,polonium,actinium etc.usually all elements of atomic number higher than 82 show radioactivity.
How do you use radioactive element in a sentence?
A radioactive element is one that discharges radiation. Uranium is a radioactive element. A radioactive element is very dangerous if you don't have protective clothing. You should never go near a radioactive element.
Is uranium an example of an unstable element?
All the isotopes of uranium (natural or artificial) are radioactive and unstable.
What is the last member of this group all isotopes of this element are radioactive?
For example francium in the group 1.
What characterizes a radioactive element?
A radioactive element is characterized by having unstable atomic nuclei that decay and emit radiation in the form of alpha particles, beta particles, or gamma rays. This decay process results in the transformation of the element into a different element or isotope.
What is the breakdown of a radioactive isotope of the same element or of another element?
radioactive decay
What element is a radioactive element?
The radioactive element is composed of unstable nuclei that try to reach stability through emitting nuclear radiations as alpha, beta, and gamma nuclear radiations.
