Question
Chapter 20, Problem 84AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Comparison between health hazard possessed by a radioactive isotope with a short half-life with one having a long half-life is to be done.
Concept introduction:
Natural decay is a process in which an atomic nucleusis unstable and releases energy through the emission of radiations such asalpha particles, it is also known as radioactive decay. The isotope that exhibits these properties is said to be a radioactive isotope.
