What is isotope and radio isotope?

Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons. Radioisotopes are isotopes that are unstable and undergo radioactive decay, emitting radiation in the process. They are commonly used in medicine, industry, and research.

What is radio activity isotops?

Radio active isotopes are unstable isotopes of an element as there neutron number degenerate by emission of light or medium.


How is isotape useful?

Isotopes are useful in various fields such as medicine, industry, and environmental science. In medicine, they are used for diagnostic imaging, cancer treatments, and in tracing biological processes. In industry, they are used for quality control and product testing, while in environmental science, isotopes can be used to track migration patterns of animals or pollutants in the environment.


Is Zirconium not radioactive?

What objects use energy?

The use of nuclear energy in civilian society is to generate electricity. In the military it is to make bombs (and hopefully not use them). There are also some uses in medicine where radio isotopes can be used for diagnosis and treatment. These isotopes are produced by irradiation in low power reactors which enable short lived radio isotopes to be obtained as required.


What is the element with the maximum number of radio isotopes?
