1. Radiation

2. Radioactive Decay
Radioactive decay is the process of watch a unstable atom losses energy all of a sudden by letting out “radiation”
The lost of energy results in a single atom of one type called the parent nuclide
Radioactive decay happens when there is to many neutrons or to many protons

3. Half-life
Half-life is the period of time of a atom going through decay to decrease by half of it’s original amount

4. Nuclear Energy
Nuclear energy is created by the splitting or combining of atom’s nuclei
The nuclear energy creates only 20% of the U.S.’s electrical energy
It is done in nuclear reactors that are underwater and heat up the water and we turn the heated water in to electricity

5. Nuclear Waste
Nuclear waste is being stored in tanks or concert and steel bunkers at sites that are meant to contain the waste for decades, not centuries

6. Nuclear Energy vs. Nuclear Bomb
Nuclear energy is created in a reactor in a continues and controlled way
It produces heat and we collect the heat to turn it into energy
Bomb
Designed to release nuclear energy all at once creating a huge explosion and heat wave destroying almost everything
