Nuclear Radiation Nuclear Radiation: Matter and large amounts of energy produced during a nuclear reaction. Three main types of nuclear radiation: Alpha radiation (α ) Beta radiation (β) Gamma radiation (ϒ)

Nuclear Radiation Types of radiation can be classified by type of shielding. paper (alpha particle) wood (beta particle) (gamma particle) concrete or lead

Types of Nuclear Radiation Types of radiation can be classified by their charges.

Alpha (α ) Radiation change in mass number: change in atomic number: parent decays α + daughter isotope isotope particle (stable) (unstable) (He nucleus) change in mass number: change in atomic number:

Beta (β) Radiation β particle change in mass number: change in atomic number: transmutation occur? 35

Gamma (ϒ) Radiation +ϒ parent decays α + daughter isotope + ϒ isotope particle (stable) (unstable) (He nucleus) change in mass number: change in atomic number: transmutation occur?

Transmutation Transmutation: An element is converted to a new element during radioactive decay. What must happen in the nucleus for a transmutation to occur? Does a transmutation occur during alpha, beta, and gamma reactions?

Transmutation Transmutation: An element is converted to a new element during radioactive decay. How else could you define transmutation? What must happen in the nucleus for a transmutation to occur? Does a transmutation occur when alpha, beta, or gamma radiation is produced?

Transmutation Transmutation: An element is converted to a new element during radioactive decay. A parent isotope is converted to daughter isotope An unstable atom converted to a more stable atom. Atomic number changes during radioactive decay parent decays α + daughter isotope isotope particle (stable) (unstable) (He nucleus)

Transmutation Transmutation occurs during: 1. Radioactive Decay 2. Bombarding an atom’s nucleus with particles. -can occur naturally or artificially -fission and fusion nuclear reactions

Fission vs. Fusion Fission Fusion Similarities

Nuclear Fission Fission is the splitting of a heavy nucleus by bombarding it with neutrons. cikguwong.blogspot.com chm.bris.ac.uk

Nuclear Fission Application Generates electricity where only steam is released into the environment. english-online.at chm.bris.ac.uk

Nuclear Fission Problem Nuclear Waste: Spent fuel rods must be disposed of properly. (pg. 812 in text) On-site or off-site holding tanks called pools. coto2.wordpress.com

Nuclear Fusion Nuclear Fusion – Small radioisotope nuclei combine. mrbarlow.wordpress.com mrbarlow.wordpress.com

Nuclear Fusion Produces immense amount of energy. Does not produce nuclear waste Applications? Not yet. Requires immense amount of energy. Example: sun (40,000,000 0C) scienceknowledge.org

Nuclear Chemistry Objectives Students will assess the application of nuclear chemistry as a continual alternative resource of energy for developed countries. Assessment by: -reading and annotating literature that addresses pros and cons of nuclear energy. Debating with peers why we should or should not depend on nuclear energy. Formulating an opinion based on facts as to why the U.S. should continue to support the research and development of nuclear energy. (ORQ format)
