Radioactivity was discovered my Antoine Henri Becquerel (accidentally) also Marie and<br />

Pierre Curie<br />

Nuclear radiation mostly studied by Marie Pierre as well with her husband<br />

With an unstable isotopes or radioisotopes<br />

When the atomic number is lower by two and its mass number is lower by four when an<br />

atom loses an alpha particle<br />

Equal mass number- superscripts<br />

Equal atomic number- subscripts<br />

Taking out or moving apart of a neutron in a atom is beta particle<br />

When it decays it gives of energy<br />

Zero charge in neutron<br />

When it give off a electron but the mass doesn’t change<br />

Alpha is the longest one but it wont go thru skin<br />

Alpha has a lack of neutrons<br />

Beta one of the neutrons splits<br />

The – charge give energy and the + charge becomes a neutron<br />

Beta will go thru your skin but to the germ cell<br />

Gamma is high energy<br />

Gamma is sort was cant go thru lead<br />

The particle is make is futons<br />

We humans are organic material<br />

radioactive isotope is carbon-14/not stable<br />

normal carbons it carbon-12 and 13/stable
