1 Chapter 9 Nuclear Radiation 9.1 Natural Radioactivity

2 Radioactive Isotopes A radioactive isotope has an unstable nucleus. emits radiation to become more stable. can be one or more of the isotopes of an element

3 Nuclear Radiation Nuclear radiation is the radiation emitted by an unstable atom. takes the form of alpha particles, neutrons, beta particles, positrons, or gamma rays.

4 Types of Radiation Alpha (  ) particle is two protons and two neutrons Beta (  ) particle is a high-energy electron 0 e Positron (  +) is a positive electron 0 e +1 Gamma ray is high-energy released from a nucleus 

5 Radiation Protection Radiation protection requires paper and clothing for alpha particles. a lab coat or gloves for beta particles. a lead shield or a thick concrete wall for gamma rays. limiting the amount of time spent near a radioactive source. increasing the distance from the source.

6 Shielding for Radiation Protection

7 Radiation Exposure a.Background Exposure 1.Consumer and natural sources such as cosmic rays and radon b.Biological Effects of Radiation 1.Ionizing radiation can lead to damage in both body cells (somatic damage) and reproductive cells (genetic damage). 2.The penetrating power of the types of radiation follows the general trend: 3.gamma rays > beta particles > alpha particles

8 Sources of radiation

9 Means and result of radon exposure
