Magnesium has three naturally occuring isotopes. 78.70% of Magnesium atoms exist as Magnesium-24, 10.03% exist as Magnesium-25 and 11.17% exist as Magnesium-26. What is the average atomic mass of Magnesium?
Fission versus Fusion • Fusion: small atoms coming together to make a bigger atom • occurs on the sun; very hot temperatures • Atoms “fuse” together • Fission: breaking a large atom into smaller atoms (called daughter nuclei) • Natural radioactive decay
This element undergoes alpha and gamma decay. Write the equation: • U-238
