- A free radiacal is a) Any charged particel b) An atom or molecule with unpaired electron in the outer shell c) An atom with an even number of electronarrow_forwardCarbon-14 is a radioactive material. It contains 6 protons and 8 neutrons. During the process of Carbon-14 decay, one of its 8 neutrons becomes a proton and an electron is formed in the process. Based on this information, select all that apply. The mass number is unchanged by the decay of Carbon-14. The mass number is changed by the decay of Carbon-14. After decay the atom is still Carbon. After decay the atom is not Carbon.arrow_forwardWhat do these two tests indicate about the unknown molecule?arrow_forward

The specific isotopes used depends on the particular organ or body system being studied (for example, Xe-133 is used to image lung function and blood flow.) Technetium-99m is a common radioactive isotope using for a variety of medical applications. It is produced from the decay of Molybdenum-99 and has a half-life of 6.01 hours. What are some of the applications of Tc-99m? While harder to access, another radioactive isotope of technetium, Tc-93, has a half-life of 2.73 hours. If it were easier to harvest, would this be a good substitute for Tc-99m? (remember to explain why for full credit) While Tc-99m has a half-life of 6.01 hours, its decay product has a half-life of 213,000 years. While the medical community considers it to be reasonably safe, within the limits of testing, does this make sense considering both chemical and biological principles? What are possible ways that you might deal with or…arrow_forwardThe decay of an isotope element follows a first-order reaction. Assuming that you start with 964 mg of the isotope element sample, after 39.4 hours of decay, you find that there is 275 mg of the sample remaining.
