  1. CHAPTER 21 NUCLEAR CHEMISTRY

  2. NUCLEUS • NUCLEONS ARE MADE UP OF PROTONS AND NEUTRONS • NUCLIDE IS AN ATOM IDENTIFIED BY THE NUMBER OF PROTONS AND NEUTRONS • NUCLEAR BINDING ENERGY IS THE ENERGY RELEASED WHEN A NUCLEUS IS FORMED FROM NUCLEONS

  3. NUCLEAR REACTIONS CHANGES THE NUCLEUS OF A REACTION EXAMPLE + +

  4. RADIOACTIVE DECAY • SPONTANEOUS DISINTEGRATION OF A NUCLEUS INTO A SLIGHTLY LIGHTER NUCLEUS, ACCOMPANIED BY EMISSION OF PARTICLES, ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION OR BOTH

  5. TYPES OF RADIOACTIVE DECAY

  6. ALPHA EMISSION • AN ALPHA PARTICLE IS TWO PROTONS AND TWO NEUTRONS BOUND TOGETHER AND IS EMITTED FROM THE NUCLEUS DURING RADIOACTIVE DECAY

  7. EXAMPLE +

  8. BETA EMISSION • A BETA PARTICLE IS AN ELECTRON EMITTED FROM THE NUCLEUS DURING RADIOACTIVE DECAY

  9. + + EXAMPLE

  10. POSITRON EMISSION • A POSITRON IS A PARTICLE THAT HAS THE SAME MASS AS AN ELECTRON, BUT HAS A POSITIVE CHARGE.

  11. + + EXAMPLE

  12. ELECTRON CAPTURE • AN INNER ORBITAL ELECTRON IS CAPTURED BY THE NUCLEUS OF ITS OWN ATOM

  13. EXAMPLE + +

  14. GAMMA EMISSION • GAMMA RAYS ARE HIGH-ENERGY ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES EMITTED FROM A NUCLEUS AS IT CHANGES FROM THE EXCITED STATE TO A GROUND ENERGY STATE.

  15. PRACTICE The alpha decay of iridium-174

  16. PRACTICE The beta decay of platinum-199

  17. PRACTICE Positron emission from sulfur-31

  18. PRACTICE Krypton-76 undergoes electron capture

  19. HALF LIFE-t1/2 • TIME REQUIRED FOR HALF OF THE ATOMS OF A RADIOACTIVE NUCLIDE TO DECAY

  20. REPRESENTATIVE RADIOACTIVE NUCLIDES AND THEIR HALF-LIVES

  21. HALF LIFE CALCULATIONS t1/2=TIME ELAPSED X 1/HALF LIFE AMT REMAINING=STARTING AMT X (1/2)n WHERE n=THE NUMBER OF HALF-LIVES

  22. EXAMPLE PHOSPHORUS-32 HAS A HALF LIFE OF 14.3 DAYS. HOW MANY MILLIGRAMS OF PHOSPHORUS-32 REMAIN AFTER 57.2 DAYS IF YOU START WITH 4.0 mg OF THE ISOTOPE? 0.25mg

  23. PRACTICE If the half-life for the radioactive decay of zirconium-84 is 26 minutes and I start with a 175 gram sample, how much will be left over after 104 minutes? 10.9g

  24. PRACTICE ASSUMING A HALF-LIFE OF 1599 YEARS, HOW MANY YEARS WILL BE NEEDED FOR THE DECAY OF 15/16 OF A GIVEN AMOUNT OF RADIUM-226? 6396 YEARS
