Isotopes Ions The difference between: & (remember isotopic notation) ( go over radii)
Nuclear Energy Alpha Decay: Beta Decay: Gamma Radiation:
Uranium Decay series (for example)
Half life Calculations Ex: Manganese-56 is a beta emitter with a half-life of 2.6 hours. What is the mass of Mangenese-56 in a 1.0 mg sample of the isotope at the end of 10.4 hours? 4 half lives;.063mg Mn-56
