What compounds are in cobalt?
There are no compounds in Cobalt. It is completely impossible, because Cobalt is an element, and compounds are made up of elements. If this is what you meant to ask, then there a a lot of compounds with Cobalt in them. One example is Cobalt (III) Fluoride, chemical formula CoF3. Any compound with a "Co" (the "C" must be capitalized and the "o" must lowercase) in it contains Cobalt.
How many protons are in Cobalt-59?
i really dont know
When iron 59 undergoes beta decay what is the results?
The daughter product in this nuclear process will be cobalt-59, which is stable. One neutron becomes a proton and an electron. The proton remains, adding 1 to the nuclide's atomic number; the electron is emitted as a beta particle.
What is cobalts compound?
Cobalt forms a variety of compounds due to its versatile oxidation states. Some common cobalt compounds include cobalt(II) chloride, cobalt(II) sulfate, and cobalt(II) nitrate. These compounds are used in various industrial applications, such as catalysts, pigments, and magnetic materials.
How many neutrons are in one atom of cobalt ion?
In one atom of cobalt ion, the number of neutrons can vary based on the isotope. The most common isotope of cobalt is cobalt-59, which has 33 neutrons.
How is cobalt 60 and cobalt 59 the same element but have different mass numbers?
Cobalt 60 has an extra neutron buit that does not affect chemical properties
What has the author Jacob Rutt Risser written?
Jacob Rutt Risser has written: 'Neutron-induced radioactivity of long life in cobalt ..' -- subject(s): Cobalt, Neutrons, Radioactivity
Is positively charge neutron?
No, a neutron does not have a positive nor a negative charge. Its in between, too many neutrons can cause radiation, like cobalt-60 the number at the end tells you how much neutrons are in the atom.
What is a compound for cobalt?
Yes, cobalt form many chemical compounds as cobalt nitrate, cobalt chloride, cobalt sulfate, cobalt sulfide, etc.

What percentage of the initial radioactivity of cobalt-60 would be left after being stored for 32 years?
The half life of Cobalt-60 is 5.27 years, so 32 years is almost exactly six half lives. (Which is probably why the question is put this way). Every half life the activity halves, so after six half lives it is reduced by a factor 26, which is 64. Therefore the activity after six half lives is 1/64 of the original level, or 1.56 percent.
What is neutron capture?
In short, neutron capture is a nuclear reaction wherein an atomic nucleus captures one (or perhaps more) neutrons. The nucleus is then one nucleon heavier (or perhaps more, if more neutrons are absorbed). The new nucleus may be subject to further transformations, depending on what was formed in the capture process. Many different atomic nuclei can capture a neutron under the right conditions. We often think of uranium or plutonium (nuclear fuels) as atoms that undergo neutron capture. It is, after all, neutron capture that destabilizes the nucleus and can cause nuclear fission. This is the process that we set up when we build a nuclear reactor or a nuclear weapon. We can expose any number of different materials to the neutron flux in operating nuclear reactor. Atoms in the material will undergo neutron capture, depending on the conditions in the ractor, and (primarily) what the material is. In the case of cobalt, we will lower a measured amount of the metal in a suitable form into the reactor via a port. After a desired amount of time, the slug of cobalt, which was cobalt-59, is withdrawn. We now have a slug that has a fair percentage of cobalt-60 in it, and cobalt-60 is radioactive. The isotope emits gamma rays, and the slug is put in a casket of shielding material and can be transported for industrial use. (It might be used to X-ray welds in piping at a remote location, or sterilize band aids or other medical items at the end of a manufacturing process.)
How many valence in the element cobalt?
There are 2 valence electrons in cobalt.
What does cobalt therapy use?
It uses high energy, penetrating waves or particles such as x rays, gamma rays, proton rays, or neutron rays
How many types of elements are in cobalt(II) carbonate CoCO3?
There are three(3) elements in cobalt carbonate. They are Cobalt Carbon Oxygen
Where did the cobalt bomb originate?
The cobalt bomb is a modified hydrogen bomb containing a jacket of cobalt. Natural cobalt is isotopically pure stable cobalt-59 and when it captures a high energy fusion neutron it transmutes to the highly radioactive isotope cobalt-60. This dramatically increases the fallout produced. The cobalt bomb was proposed for use as an area denial weapon, as the cobalt-60 fallout contaminated area would be completely uninhabitable for roughly 25 years. But it never made it to development as an actual weapon by any country. You simply cannot control where the fallout will go or its distribution, making it as dangerous to the army using it as to the army it is used on.
