ISOTOPES After reading this section you will be able to do the following: * Define an isotope and explain how it is different than an element. The other particle in the nucleus of an atom is the neutron. The neutron has no electrical charge and is said to be neutral. Like protons‚ all neutrons

    naturally occurring isotopes. The most common of the three is carbon-12 is accountable for 99% of of the carbon that is found in nature. Carbon-12 has 6 neutrons. Another isotope of carbon‚ carbon-13‚ has 7 neutrons. The least common isotope of carbon‚ which is carbon-14‚ has 8 neutrons. All three isotopes of carbon have 6 protons‚ which makes them a carbon atom. Explain radioactive isotopes and one medical application that uses them. A radioactive isotope is an unstable isotope whose nucleus decays

    Radioactive isotopes (radioisotopes) are isotopes which are atoms of the same element that are chemically identical but vary in the number of neutrons they contain. Radioactive isotopes can participate in reactions just like non radioactive elements. Autoradiography is a technique used to trace the movements of certain substances around plants. An example of this is carbon 14. Carbon 14‚ a radioactive isotope‚is added to the carbon dioxide supply of the plant‚ to study the movement of products

    Isotopes in Agriculture An isotope is a two or more atom that has different mass number but the same atomic number. An isotope is a variation of an element with a difference in the normal number of neutrons. The increased mass of an isotope can cause the chemical reactions they are used in to progress more slowly than a reaction that does not use isotopes. Not all isotopes are radioactive and there are many uses for them. They can be used in medicine‚ diagnose‚ nutrition‚ agriculture‚ research

Also nuclear chemistry has some other methods that deals with nuclear medicine called analytic methods which are using radioactive isotopes for biological tracers and using isotopes for dilution. Radiation can have beneficial and harmful effects towards organisms‚ and it normally be applied in the form of dosages. It is said that as the dosages increase the greater the effect the radiation has upon

    fusion and fission of radioactive elements‚ is one of the worst sources of energy because of its immense waste‚ danger to the general public‚ and large expenses. Residual waste from nuclear energy is an inevitable side-effect of fission. Each radioactive isotope has a half life‚ which is the specific amount of time that it takes an isotope to decay to half of its original mass. This means that while technically each isotope will exponentially decay‚ the time it
