Decay

This Chemistry lesson is titled Positron Decay and will give a detailed explanation of the topic.

This Chemistry lesson is titled Alpha Decay and will give a detailed explanation of the topic.

Craig Beals explains why some atoms emit radiation through the processes of radioactivity and radioactive decay. He examines the role of isotopes in radiation and shows Uranium - 238 from Carnotite Ore and Americium - 241 from a smoke detector.
