Radioactivity Conversion for Pc

1. Some elements like uranium and thorium continually emit radiation and ionizing particles which result in different daughter elements by releasing energy in the form of alpha ,beta and gamma radiation.

2. In this process different ionizing particles and electromagnetic radiation are emitted from the nucleus.

3. The time for radiation to decay varies from element to element and also depends on their isotopes, and is measured in terms of a half life which varies depending upon radioisotopes.

4. Some radioactive decay changes the original nucleus of the atom into either a different nucleus or a nucleus in a changed state.

5. One of the most important radioactive elements is Radon, which is a dense colourless and odorless gas with a boiling point of -61.8°C (-79.2°F). Radon dissolves in water easily below its boiling point, and freezes at low temperature.

6. During the decay the radioactive particles take the energy away from the nucleus.

7. Different types of radioactive decay include alpha, beta, and gamma decay.

8. Radioactivity is the property of some elements whose atomic nucleus spontaneously loses electromagnetic energy because of instability.

9. The half life tells us how much time it will take for an element to decay to half the amount of radiation.

10. Radioactive decay is a process of discharging radioactive particles.

11. When talking about radiation, this article refers to ionizing radiation.
