Week 6 Lab: Nuclear Chemistry Objectives: Identify the differences between chemical reactions and nuclear reactions. Identify the concept of radioactive decay. Identify the nuclear changes associated with alpha, beta or gamma decay. Write the products of nuclear reactions involving alpha, beta or gamma emissions. Explain the concept of half-lives and complete half-life calculations. Identify common subatomic particles and energies involved in nuclear reactions Recognize common modes of radioactive decay (alpha, beta, gamma, and electron capture) by observing differences in nucleic mass defect and/or binding energies Describe common applications of radioactive isotopes (nuclear medicine, radiometric/carbon dating, nuclear energy) Describe how carbon dating works Radioactivity is something that only happens in nuclear power plants, right? In this simulation, you will learn that radioactivity is much more common than you might think—in fact, you are surrounded by it! You will also learn what types of atoms are radioactive and why, and how alpha, beta, and gamma decay generate different types of radioactivity. Understand the processes happening in the atomic nucleus Use our holofloor to visualize how protons and neutrons interact in the nucleus. Experiment with stability of isotopes and figure out why some combinations are more stable than others. Analyze properties of alpha, beta, and gamma decay Radioactive isotopes can undergo alpha, beta, and gamma de
