Directions: Follow the instructions to go through the simulation. Respond to the questions highlighted in blue and prompts in orange boxes. Gizmo Warm-up Like an unpopped kernel in the microwave, a radioactive atom can change at any time. Radioactive atoms change by emitting radiation in the form of tiny particles and/or energy. This process, called decay, causes the radioactive atom to change into a stable daughter atom. The Half-life Gizmo allows you to observe and measure the decay of a radioactive substance. Be sure the sound is turned on and click Play ( ). Pre Lab Questions: 1 What do you see and it sounds like a popping noise and see an arrow that looks like . hear? static. Note: The clicking sound you hear comes from a Geiger counter, an instrument that detects the particles and energy emitted by decaying radioactive atoms. 2 . Looking at the box of particles, what remains at the end of the decay process? daughter atoms. 3 Is the rate of decay fastest at the beginning, middle, or end of the at the beginning . process?
