What else can I help you with?
How long will it take half of a radioactive sample to decay?
The time it takes for half of a radioactive sample to decay is known as the half-life. Each radioactive element has a unique half-life, which could range from fractions of a second to billions of years. The half-life remains constant regardless of the size of the initial sample.
Is radium more powerful then a radioactive element?
Your question is meaningless. Radium IS a radioactive element, and its power depends on the context. If you mean "is there an element more radioactive than radium" then yes, there are many, e.g. astatine.
What is a parent and daughter element?
In chemistry, a parent element is a radioactive element that undergoes decay to form a different element known as the daughter element. The parent element gives rise to the daughter element as a result of radioactive decay processes such as alpha decay, beta decay, or electron capture. The daughter element has a different number of protons and atomic number compared to the parent element.
Plutonium is what type of element?
Plutonium is an artificial chemical element, radioactive, unstable, toxic, solid, metal, member of the actinides group, Olivette very important for nuclear weapons and nuclear fuels, etc.
Element number 105?
The element with atomic number 105 is Dubnium (Db). It is a synthetic element that was first synthesized in 1968 by a team of Russian scientists. Dubnium is highly radioactive and has no known biological role.
What is the best known radioactive element?
Probably uranium is the best known radioactive element.
How do scientists use the halflife of radioactive isotopes to date rocks and fossils?
The basic idea is to compare the abundance of a naturally occurring radioactive isotope within a material to the abundance of its decay products; it is known how fast the radioactive isotope decays.
How long will it take half of a radioactive sample to decay?
The time it takes for half of a radioactive sample to decay is known as the half-life. Each radioactive element has a unique half-life, which could range from fractions of a second to billions of years. The half-life remains constant regardless of the size of the initial sample.
First element known to be radioactive?
Uranium is the first element known to be radioactive. It was discovered by Henri Becquerel in 1896.
What is am element?
Element Am is Americium. Americium is radioactive element number ninety five. I would not wanna mess with Americium
What is a well known heavy element?
One well-known heavy element is uranium. It is commonly used as a fuel in nuclear reactors and is known for its radioactive properties.
Is radium more powerful then a radioactive element?
Your question is meaningless. Radium IS a radioactive element, and its power depends on the context. If you mean "is there an element more radioactive than radium" then yes, there are many, e.g. astatine.
Is the element hassium harmful?
Yes, hassium is a highly radioactive element and is considered to be harmful to human health due to its toxicity and potential for disrupting cellular processes. Exposure to hassium should be avoided.
What is polonum?
Polonium is a radioactive metallic element. One industrial use is in antistatic brushes or devices. It has more isotopes than any other element, of which all are radioactive. It is a known carcinogen in tobacco smoke.
How does the composition of a rock containing a radioactive element change over time?
The compositionn of a rock containing a radioactive element changes over time by: decaying and changing into another element; the amount of the radio active element goes down, but the amount of the new element goes up.
Can you make hydrogen a radioactive element?
Hydrogen has one very rare radioactive isotope: hydrogen-3, commonly known as tritium; also some artificial radioactive isotopes as 4H, 5H, 6H.
What is the scientist Marie Curie known for?
discovery of the elements Radium and Poloniumstudying the decay chains from the radioactive element Uranium down to the stable element Lead
