Nuclear Chemistry By- Presto Bitchez!!!

How does an unstable nucleus release energy? An unstable nucleus releases energy by emitting radiation during the process of radioactive decay.

What are the three main types of nuclear radiation? The three main types of nuclear radiation are alpha radiation, beta radiation, and gamma radiation.

What determines the type of decay a radioisotope undergoes? The ratio of neutrons to protons. If they have too many of one, something happens??.

Explain how a half-life works with radioactive decay.. Half-life is the period of time it takes for a substance undergoing decay to decrease by half.

What happens in a nuclear chain reaction? One nuclear reaction can trigger one or more nuclear reactions.

Why are spent fuel rods from a nuclear reaction stored in water? Because appreciable heat that is being produced in spent fuel, after it is unloaded due to radioactivity, the fission products needs to be cooled.

How do fission reactions and fusion reactions differ? Fusion is the bonding of atomic nuclei. Fission is the splitting of the atom.

What are three devices used to detect radiation? Geiger Counter Scintillation Counter Dosimeter

How are radioisotopes used in medicine? Radioactive materials used as a diagnostic tool can identify the status of a disease and minimize the need for surgery, reducing the risks from postoperative infection.
