Today radium-226 is not used for radiotherapy.
"Illuminate your world with Radium!" "Shine bright like Radium!" "Glowing brilliance with Radium." "Radiant energy, powered by Radium."
The first name was radium; some isotopes had in the past other names.
No plural for radium.
Radium primarily forms compounds with oxygen, such as radium oxide (RaO), radium peroxide (RaO2), and radium hydroxide (Ra(OH)2). It can also form compounds with other elements, such as radium chloride (RaCl2) and radium sulfate (RaSO4). These compounds are generally highly radioactive due to the nature of radium as a radioactive element.
Port radium
saves lives?
Yes, there is now apps and other devices that will help you in a sign of a emergency.
It saves humans lives by checking the medicine to see weather or not it is safe to cure illness
Marie Curie discovered radium and won the Nobel Prize twice.She invented X-ray vans in the First World War to help save solidiers lives.
1.875g
After 4 half-lives, the amount remaining is ( (1/2)^4 ), which equals 1/16. Therefore, 1 gram of radium-226 will have 1/16 gram unchanged after four half-lives, which is 0.0625 grams.
Polonium and radium's affect on our lives today are for example the meters on our cars, they glow because of the radium and also some wristwatches the light you get when you press the button on the side. Radium was discovered by a woman named Marie Cuire, she's married, but she obviously died because of too much radium.
To determine the amount of radium that will decay in 5000 years, we need to find the number of half-lives that occur in that time period. Since the half-life of radium is 1602 years, approximately 3 half-lives occur in 5000 years. After 3 half-lives, the initial 35g sample will decay to approximately 4.375g.
Radium 226 (the most stable isotope) is a radioactive decay product of uranium; other isotopes of radium with short half lives exist in the thorium, actinium and neptunium decay series. See the link.
