FAN AND MEDAL

OpenStudy (braves12):

The element carbon has three natural isotopes: C-12, C-13, and C-14. Use the periodic table to find the number of protons in a carbon atom. Then make a drawing to show the nuclei of the three carbon isotopes. Your drawing should convey the number of protons and neutrons in each of the three different nuclei. Carbon-12 and Carbon-13 are stable, whereas Carbon-14 is unstable. Which isotope of carbon is most likely to undergo natural radioactive decay? Which one would be called a radioisotope? Explain the three processes of nuclear change and what is produced during as a result of that change. Why is U-235 the most common nuclear fuel instead of the more abundant U-238? State a clear topic sentence and support it with evidence. Create a flow chart to show how uranium is processed for use in a nuclear reactor.
