83
Q

A

Pure energy

84
Q

Half life

A

The amount of time it takes for half of a radioactive substance to decay

85
Q

Radioactive

A

Giving off radiation (alpha particles, beta particles, and or gamma together)

86
Q

Strong nuclear force

A

Attractive force between nucleons, holds the nucleus together

87
Q

Electromagnetic force

A

Force of attraction between electrons and protons force of repulsion between protons

88
Q

Transmutation

A

One element mutates into a different element by giving off a radioactive particle

89
Q

What is more radioactive a shorter or longer half life and why

A

Shorter half life because it is more radioactive, it is giving off radioactive particles faster

90
Q

How does the atomic number and atomic mass change when an alpha particle is shot off

A

Atomic number goes down by two because two protons are shot off, atomic mass goes down by four because two protons and two neutrons

91
Q

How does the atomic mass and atomic number change when a beta particle is shot off

A

The atomic number does up by one because a neutron is converted into a proton and the atomic mass stays the same

92
Q

Compare and contrast the strong nuclear force with the electromagnetic force

A

Strong nuclear force: short range, works on protons and neutrons, stronger
Electromagnetic force: long range, works on protons and electrons (only charged particles), and is weaker

93
Q

What problems occur when exposed to radioactive decay for long periods of time at high levels

A

Cancer, birth defects m, shortened life span

94
Q

Chain reaction

A

Splitting one atom causes several atoms to split when neutrons are shot off
