Question
Chapter 19, Problem 19.65QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Reason for strontium-90 particularly dangerous isotope for humans has to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Isotopes are atoms having same
Radioactive isotopes are atoms that contain an unstable nucleus and dissipate excess energy by spontaneously emitting radiation in the form of alpha, beta, gamma rays.
Strontium-90 is limited in use because of its calcium like property.

write the nuclear equation for the radioactive decay of polonium -209 by alpha decay
The stable isotope of carbon is C-12. Predict the nuclear process for the decay of C-14.
• Glass is formed by heating sand (silica) with sodium carbonate or calcium carbonate. The
molten liquid cools into a hard and transparent material. The addition of metal oxides
alters the color of the resulting glass.
• Beta-titanium is composed primarily of titanium and heat-treated with a mix of metals
such as aluminum and vanadium. The resulting material has high strength and corrosion
resistance, and is used in dental implants and aircraft parts.
• Iron (II) sulfide is formed by heating metallic iron and elemental sulfur. This results in the
formation of a non-magnetic all-black mineral.
Given the three statements above, which of the following is TRUE?
Select one:
O a. Only one material is classified as a homogeneous mixture.
O b. Only one material is classified as a pure substance.
