When aluminum-27 is bombarded with a neutron a gamma ray is emitted What radioactive isotope is produced?

∙ 9y ago
- Aluminum-27 + n -> Aluminum-28 + gamma ray
- with a 2.3 minute half life Aluminum-28 -> beta- + Silicon-28
- Silicon-28 is stable.
You have now transmuted one stable element to another.

What happens when an unstable nucleus undergoes radioactive decay?
Particles or electromagnetic radiation are emitted.
How and where are gamma rays produced?
Gamma rays are particularly energetic photons. On Earth, they are emitted from radioactive substances, during radioactive decay and are also created in x-Ray machines. They can also be produced during very energetic events in space, such as the explosion of a star. Cosmic Rays are gamma rays that continually bombard the Earth.
A beta particle may be spontaneously emitted from?
Positrons are emitted from proton-rich radioactive during positive beta-decay.
Which particle is emitted from a hydrogen-3 nucleus when it undergoes radioactive decay?
beta, aka an electron.
What does the wavelength have to do with nuclear energy?
Nothing, except that gamma rays are emitted in the fission process and from radioactive waste.
When potassium-39 is bombarded by neutrons chlorine-36 is produced what other particles are emitted?
An Alpha particle
Gamma rays are emitted by?
they are emitted by radioactivity during radioactive decay.
Gamma rays are emitted by what?
they are emitted by radioactivity during radioactive decay.
When atoms of beryllium are bombarded with alpha particles an atom of carbon is produced and a neutron is emitted What kind of nuclear reaction occurred?
Nuclear Fission. The Nucleus of the Atom has been split apart.
Are x-rays emitted during radioactive decay?
Yes they are. Nearly all kinds of electromagnetic radiation are emitted during radioactive decay
What are becquerel rays?
Rys emitted by radioactive substances.
Is Radon synthetically produced?
Radon is a naturally occurring odorless colorless radioactive gas that is emitted by the decay of uranium in the soil. It has no known industrial uses, and there is no need to synthesize it.

The scientific calculation of the radiation emitted from various radioactive sources is?
Dosimetry
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.
How many neutrons are emitted when a californium-249 nucleus is bombarded with carbon-12 nucleus to produce a Rf nucleus?
4 neutrons
