What is the change in isotopes over time due to the emission of radioactive particles is known as?
You think probable to radioactive decay.
What happens when carbon 14 undergoes radioactive decay?
6C14 ---------> 7N14 + -1 e0
Beta particle is emitted and carbon changes into nitrogen
I suppose that the isotope formed is Am-245.
Why do isotopes must have the same atomic number?
What isotope remains after the alpha decay of polonium 212?
Polonium 212 has 84 protons and 128 neutrons. An alpha particle is 2 protons and 2 neutrons, so the daughter nucleus will have 82 protons and 126 neutrons, making it lead 208.
U-235
P-33
Can a water molecule have two different isotopes of hydrogen?
Sure. There is nothing to control that both hydrogen atoms are of the same isotope - which specific hydrogen atoms combine with an oxygen atom basically depends on chance. Thus, considering that about 1 out of 5000 hydrogen atoms is heavy hydrogen (deuterium), that means that about 1 out of 2500 water molecules will have one deuterium atom (since there are two options for a deuterium atom to attach; whereas only 1 out of 25 million (i.e., 5000 squared) will have TWO deuterium atoms.
And also molecules as HTO, DTO, T2O are possible (D is deuterium, T is tritium).
What can radioactive isotopes be use for?
Radioactive isotopes have many uses:
- sources of energy
- tracers
- treatment of cancers
- sources of radiation
- components of instruments
- nuclear fuels
- nuclear bombs
and many others
Why are some isotopes weighted more heavily than others?
The type of element is decided by the number of protons in it's nucleus. Number of neutrons are either equal or more than number of protons. Mass of proton and neutron is almost equal and that of electron is almost negligible as compared to both of others. As number of neutrons differ, mass of the elements also differ. Though they have 'same' chemical properties. Such atoms with different mass are called Isotopes. If the number of neutron is more, then such Isotopes are having more mass (or weight.)
Can all radioactive isotopes be used in radiometric dating?
No, not all radioactive isotopes be used in radiometric dating. Some have very very short half lives and would entirely disappear before any useful period of time passed.
What isotopes are atoms of the same elements with different number of?
Isotopes are atoms of the same elements with different number of neutrons.
What is hydrogen isotope with two neurons?
The hydrogen isotope with two neutrons is called deuterium. It is a heavier and stable form of hydrogen, commonly used in nuclear reactions and heavy water production.
What are some isotopes more heavily weighted than other?
Isotopes contain a different number of neutrons.
How many neutrons is in caesium isotope 1?
If you think to stable isotope Ca-135 this have 80 neutrons.
