Why non-radioactive substances became radioactive when placed near a radium compound?
The particles emitted by a radioactive substance can change other atoms, and in some cases, they will turn into radioactive isotopes.
Are radioactive substances the last period of elements (at the bottom of the chart)?
Radioactive substances are not exclusive to the last period of elements on the periodic table, but many of the heaviest elements, particularly those in the actinide and transactinide series, are radioactive. These elements, found at the bottom of the periodic table, typically have unstable nuclei that decay over time. However, there are also radioactive isotopes of lighter elements scattered throughout the periodic table. Thus, while many radioactive elements are at the bottom, not all radioactive substances belong to this category.
What are X rays ultraviolet light and radioactive substances classified as?
mutagens
Is alpha radiation emmitted by all radioactive substances?
No, not all radioactive substances emit alpha radiation. Alpha radiation consists of helium nuclei (two protons and two neutrons) being emitted from the nucleus of an atom. Some radioactive substances emit alpha radiation, while others emit different types of radiation such as beta or gamma radiation.
Do radioactive substances explode?
No, radioactive substances do not explode on their own. Radioactivity refers to the emission of particles or radiation from an unstable atomic nucleus, but it does not cause explosions like those seen in chemical reactions. However, mishandling radioactive materials can lead to criticality incidents, which are different from explosions.
What is radioactive substances?
Radioactive substances are the things that put off radiation. These could be radioactive waste, or even radioactive materials not yet used.
What is the difference between radioactive and non radioactive materials?
Radioactive materials contain unstable atoms that decay and emit radiation, while non-radioactive materials do not emit radiation. Radioactive materials can be harmful to living organisms due to their ionizing radiation, whereas non-radioactive materials are generally considered safe for everyday use.
What counts radioactive material?
Radioactive materials are substances that contain unstable nuclei that can undergo radioactive decay, releasing energy in the form of radiation. Common examples include uranium, plutonium, and radium.
What is the difference between a non-radioactive substance and a radioactive substance?
Radioactive substances are unstable as a result of the extra neutrons present in the nuclei of the substance. Non-radioactive substances are stable.
Do radioacvtive substances glow?
Yes. Radioactive substances glow .
Do wind turbines use radioactive substances?
So far there are no known reasons to use radioactive substances in wind turbines.
What radioactive substances are there?

Where you can find the radioactive substance?
Those substances which are made of heavy metals are termed as radioactive substances. e.g. u-235...etc
Does sodium contain radioactive isotopes?
Sodium has no radioactive isotopes.
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.
Can chlorine get rid of radioactive substances?
yes it can because chlorine is opposite of radioactive products
What makes some substances glow?
Radioactive
