Describe the properties of a radioisotope.
An atomic nucleus can be described by the analogy “like a marble in the Dallas Cowboys Stadium.” If a marble represents the atomic nucleus, what does the stadium represent?
What if there are a different number of Neutrons?
Sometimes elements have a different number of neutrons than usual, so therefore have a different atomic mass. This is what we call an Isotope (a variant form of an element which has the same number of protons but a differing number of neutrons).
Sometimes we’ll see Isotopes labeled with their new mass like this:
14C = this is Carbon 14. Notice it has a different mass than what is on your periodic table
The average mass of all the isotopes is defined as an element’s Atomic Weight. Can you answer questions about these Isotopes?

- Many radioactive isotopes are used in medicine for imaging and treatment purposes. The specific isotopes used depends on the particular organ or body system being studied (for example, Xe-133 is used to image lung function and blood flow.)

What are some of the applications of Tc-99m? While harder to access, another radioactive isotope of technetium, Tc-93, has a half-life of 2.73 hours. If it were easier to harvest, would this be a good substitute for Tc-99m? (remember to explain why for full credit) While Tc-99m has a half-life of 6.01 hours, its decay product has a half-life of 213,000 years.
