    that his second law that all atoms of the same element are the same is false because today we have found that there are other kinds of atoms called isotopes. An isotope is an atom that has the same amount of electrons and protons‚ but it has more neutrons that increase its atomic mass. Some examples of isotopes are Carbon 12‚ carbon 13‚ carbon 14‚ Uranium (234‚ 235‚ and 238) and lithium (6‚ 7). Carbon 14 is especially useful because we know its rate of decay and can use to find how old an object is

    Nuclear engineering is the practical application of the breakdown of atomic nuclei and/or other sub-atomic physics‚ based on the principles of nuclear physics. It includes‚ but is not limited to‚ the interaction and maintenance of nuclear fission systems and components— specifically‚ nuclear reactors‚ nuclear power plants‚ and/or nuclear weapons. The field may also include the study of nuclear fusion‚ medical and other applications of (generally ionizing) radiation‚ nuclear safety‚ heat/thermodynamics

    three types of neutrinos: electron‚ muon and tau. The idea that neutrinos exist was proposed by Wolfgang Pauli. He proposed that there were more than two particles involved in an explosion‚ that along with protons and electrons‚ that a third‚ the neutron‚ was also involved. He stated that energy and momentum did not seem to be conserved in radioactive decays. Pauli proposed that the reason for this absent energy might be that was carried away by a neutral particle‚ a particle that was escaping detection

But around the nucleus there is an ‘energy’ shell which is where the electrons are. (The electrons are always orbiting the nucleus in those shells.) ➢ Here is a table to

    disintegration of a radionuclide accompanied by the emission of ionizing radiation in the form of alpha or beta particles or gamma rays. Strong interaction is a fundamental interaction between elementary particles that causes protons and neutrons to bind together in the atomic nucleus. Also called strong force. The strong force is a short-range attractive force between baryons that holds together the nucleus of the atom. Electromagnetic force is the fundamental force that is associated

    Polonium is radioactive and present only in extremely low abundances in the environment. It is quite metallic in nature despite its location beneath oxygen in the periodic table. It is made in very small quantities through a nuclear reaction of bismuth. Neutron irradiation of 209bismuth (atomic number 83) gives 210polonium (atomic number 84). 209Bi + 1n ¨ 210Po + e- Polonium-210‚ 210Po‚ transmutes into the lead isotope 206Pb by the emission of an ƒ¿-particle. The half-life for this process is just over
