Compare and Contrast cloud and bubble chambers?

1. A cloud chamber can be used to detect alpha or beta particle radiation. A cloud chamber is filled with water or ethanol vapor. When radioactive sample is placed in the cloud the chamber gives off charged alpha or beta particles that travel through the water or ethanol vapor. -B0N3S


A device in which droplets of alcohol condenses around a radioactive substance causing it to leave a trail is called?

The device you are referring to is called a cloud chamber. It is used to observe the paths of charged particles, such as those emitted from radioactive decay, as they ionize the alcohol vapor in the chamber, producing visible tracks.


Can you use ice instead of dry ice in cloud chamber experiment?

No, you can not use ice instead of regular ice in the cloud chamber experiment. It would not react the same way. Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide, the cloud chamber experiment relies on the sublimation of solid CO2 into gas.


How does the cloud chamber work?

A cloud chamber works by creating a supersaturated environment with alcohol or water vapor. When ionizing particles pass through the chamber, they leave a trail of ions that act as nucleation sites for the vapor to condense, forming visible cloud-like trails. This allows for the detection and visualization of the path of the particles as they move through the chamber.
