Question
Chapter 20, Problem 20.2TC
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The way by which Geiger and scintillation counters measure the radioactivity is to be predicted. The function of Geiger and scintillation counters is to be stated. Whether the Geiger and scintillation count radiations or something that is proportional to radiation is to be predicted. The unit for radioactivity measured by Geiger counters and scintillation counters is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The radioactive decay is defined as the spontaneous emission of particles or radiation due to the breaking of an atomic nucleus. An alpha particle, beta particle and gamma rays are emitted during the radioactive decay. An alpha particle is a helium nucleus. In beta particle emission, an atom emits an electron
