The Mysterious World of Radioactivity

INTRODUCTION  A fundamental aspect of the physical world is the phenomenon known as Radioactivity which was discovered by French Physicist Henri Becquerel in 1896. The elements with radioactive properties are either found naturally or are artificially created.They emits radiation which baby's have profound impact on the living organisms and the environment. In this blog post, we will look into the fascinating world of radioactive elements and radioactivity along with their properties,applications and implications. RADIOACTIVITY The process by which an unstable atomic nuclei loses energy through radiation is known as Radioactivity. This phenomenon takes place when there's an imbalance in the number of protons and neutrons that is instability in the nucleus of the atom.  As the nucleus decays it results in the release of radiation in three different forms which are as follows: ● Alpha Decay:   It is a type of decay in which an atomic nucleus emits al...
