Radioactive Isotopes Radioactive isotopes are any of several species of the same chemical element with different masses whose nuclei are unstable and dissipate excess energy by spontaneously emitting radiation in the form of alpha‚ beta‚ and gamma rays. Every chemical element has one or more radioactive isotopes. More than 1‚000 radioactive isotopes of the various elements are known.. Approximately 50 of the isotopes are found in nature; the rest are produced artificially as the direct products
