if an isotope broke down the electrical energy would become balanced as the outer electron/s would be taken from the atom and the isotope would become like a noble gas. isotopes can be used for radiation aswell!
Radioactive isotopes, such as uranium and thorium, undergo radioactive decay, releasing energy in the form of heat. This heat contributes to the overall heat budget of Earth. Radioactive isotopes are present in the Earth's crust and mantle, and their decay helps maintain the planet's internal heat flow.
halflife
The process is called decay, or sometimes nuclear decay. A link can be found below.
All radioactive isotopes will disintegrate.
Some examples are deuterium and tritium which are radioactive isotopes of hydrogen.
radioactive isotopes! :)
These are the radioactive unstable isotopes.

Isotopes with unstable nuclei are radioactive and can undergo radioactive decay to achieve a more stable state. This decay process involves the release of radiation such as alpha or beta particles. The unstable isotopes are often used in various applications, including medicine and energy production.
halflife
Radioactive elements break down in to stable isotopes through nuclear decay. The list of isotopes from a nuclear isotope to a stable isotope is called its decay chain.

Not all isotopes are radioactive; the radioactive isotopes are unstable and emit radiations.
Both isotopes and radioactive isotopes are pretty much the same but radioactive isotopes are better because it can be used to make medicine.
Radioactive isotopes are not stable.
Sodium has no radioactive isotopes.
