In most reference tables for isotopes, isotopes like Carbon-14 (C-14) and Uranium-238 (U-238) are commonly noted for their spontaneous decay. C-14 decays through beta decay, while U-238 undergoes alpha decay. Both isotopes are used in various applications, including dating ancient biological materials and understanding geological processes. Always refer to the specific reference table for detailed information on isotopes and their decay modes.
A normal periodic table does not list isotopes, but elements, almost all of which occur in more than one isotope, and there is probably at least one radioactive isotope for every element. Instead of the periodic table, a table of nuclides is needed to answer this question.
No. Deuterium is not an element in and of itself. It is an isotope of hydrogen.
The radioactive element polonium has an isotope 21084Po.
The number on the periodic table is the number of protons it contains. The isotope number is the sum of the protons and neutrons.Therefore, the isotope with 20 protons and 22 neutrons is Calcium-42.
because it is an isotope???

Each element on the periodic table has a specific number of neutrons and will vary for its isotope.
No. Deuterium is not an element in and of itself. It is an isotope of hydrogen.
The atomic number of an isotope is always identical to every other isotope, otherwise, it would form a separate element.

The number on the periodic table is the number of protons it contains. The isotope number is the sum of the protons and neutrons.Therefore, the isotope with 20 protons and 22 neutrons is Calcium-42.

Very probably in 1913, after the discovering of the first isotope of Pa.
The heaviest atom known today is 294Uuo, an isotope of ununoctium.

Since it has 3 protons, look up element #3 in the periodic table. That element happens to be lithium. The specific isotope is lithium-7, where 7 is the sum of 3 + 4. Finally, you may want to look up "Lithium" or "Isotopes of lithium" in the Wikipedia (or in some other online reference) to check whether such an isotope actually exists.
There's nothing to say it wouldn't. Every atom would have to move in exactly the same direction, at exactly the same time, and overcome friction. Or. Depends on your frame of reference. The book, along with the table and the Earth, is spinning at thousands of miles an hour, orbiting the Sun at thousands of miles an hour.
