12.Radioactivity
Unit (A) Atomic structure and Radioactivity
, 6. Modern Physics
Radioactivity and changes in the nucleus; background radiation and s
precautions.
Brief introduction (qualitative only) of the nucleus, nuclear structure,
number (Z), mass number (A). Radioactivity as spontaneous disintegr
β and γ - their nature and properties; changes within the nucleus. One
example each of α and β decay with equations showing changes in Z
Uses of radioactivity - radio isotopes. Harmful effects. Safety precauti
Background radiation.
Radiation: X-rays; radioactive fallout from nuclear plants and other so
Nuclear Energy: working on safe disposal of waste. Safety measures t
strictly reinforced.
, In in unit we will learn:
Structure of the Atom and nucleus
Isotopes, isobars and isotones
Introduction to Radioactivity
Radioactivity as emission of Alpha, Beta and Gamma radiations a
properties.
Changes in nucleus due to emission of radiations from nucleus.
Uses of Radioactivity and safety precautions while using
Nuclear Energy
