The term radioactive comes from Madame and Pierre Curie, who combined the Latin term radius, meaning beam of light, and actif, meaning, active.
Its not a prefix, its simply part of the word.
Radiochemicals are chemical compounds containing a radioactive isotope.
There are a lot more than 2 radio active isotopes... To answer this question a naturally or created radioactive element needs to be mentioned.
yes.light is necessary for projecting radio or radioactive rays.the sun is a nuclear power plant which consists of both atomic and sub-atomic particles and also being radioactive the answer to me would seem to be yes.
Radio active parent elements decay to stable daughter elements i.e. the radio active parent Potassium 40 decays to Argon 40 Each radioactive isotope has it's own half life A half life is the time it takes for the parent radioactive element to decay to a daughter product, Potassium 40 decays to Argon 40 with a half life of 1 1/4 billion years. Therin lies the problem of storing nuclear waste
To some extent most elements are radioactive whenever there is a possibility of an unstable isotope. However, generally speaking, gold is not considered to be radioactive. Having said that, radioactive gold can be made.
The prefix of "radiolucent" is radio.
No, it is radio waves, not electromagnetic or radioactive.
"Radioactive" was first sent to radio on April 2, 2012.
No, a radio cannot detect radioactivity. A radio is called a radio because of the radio waves that it operates on.

A radioactive substance emit nuclear radiations.
No isotope of silver ordinarily found in nature is radioactive. Like all elements, silver has synthetic radioactive isotopes.Silver is not radio active, none of silver's isotopes have radio activity.ur welcome!

Yes, plutonium is a radioactive metal.
