It starts out that way.
It became radioactive when it was produced in an ancient supernova explosion, long before earth formed. Supernova explosions are responsible for producing all elements heavier than nickel and iron (radioactive or not), the heaviest elements that can be formed by nuclear fusion.
What else can I help you with?
What happens to a region when radioactive particles are released?
This region become a radioactive contaminated area.
Does intracavitary radiation make people radioactive?
No, intracavitary radiation does not make people radioactive. The radioactive source used for treatment is placed inside the body temporarily, and once the treatment is completed, the source is removed. The patient does not become radioactive from this procedure.
How can radioactive contamination occur?
Radioactive contamination is also known as radiological contamination. It is the deposition, or presence of radioactive substances on surfaces within solids, liquids, or gases. There presence is unintended or undesirable.
How do minerals become radioactive?
Minerals become radioactive when certain elements within them undergo radioactive decay, releasing energy in the form of radiation. This process occurs when unstable isotopes of elements break down and transform into more stable forms, emitting radiation in the process. Common radioactive elements found in minerals include uranium, thorium, and potassium.
Are all elements periodically change to become new element s?
No. Only radioactive elements, which undergo radioactive decay can change to different elements.
Is rabbit feces radioactive?
No. There is no reason why rabbit feces should be radioactive, unless of course they ate something radioactive or they are under medical care using radioactive isotopes. It might be possible that if the soil is radioactive, and the plants become radioactive, that a rabbit might excrete radioactive feces from eating the plants.
What do you call something that is radioactive?
Something that is radioactive is called a radionuclide.
Can water become radioactive?
Yes, water can become radioactive if it comes into contact with radioactive materials or is exposed to radiation. This can happen in situations such as nuclear accidents or when radioactive substances are improperly disposed of.
Is it possible for water to be radioactive?
Yes, it is possible for water to become radioactive if it comes into contact with radioactive materials or is contaminated by radioactive substances.
Why are dinosaur bones radioactive?
Dinosaur bones can become radioactive due to the presence of trace amounts of radioactive elements, such as uranium and thorium, in the surrounding rocks and soil where the bones are buried. Over time, these radioactive elements can seep into the bones and cause them to become radioactive themselves.
Does a radioactive element become stable after its mass number become less than 82?
Not always -- Hydrogen-3 is radioactive, for example.
What happens to a region when radioactive particles are released?
This region become a radioactive contaminated area.
How does a person become radioactive?
By becoming unstable
Does intracavitary radiation make people radioactive?
No, intracavitary radiation does not make people radioactive. The radioactive source used for treatment is placed inside the body temporarily, and once the treatment is completed, the source is removed. The patient does not become radioactive from this procedure.
Were can you find a radioactive spider?
There are no radioactive spiders. This is something from a movie, and has never happened. There is no way to find images of radioactive spiders.
Does implant therapy make people radioactive?
Patients receiving implant therapy do become temporarily radioactive
Does interstitial radiation make people radioactive?
Patients receiving interstitial radiation do become temporarily radioactive
