If an unshielded sample of radioactive material emits alpha particles, what effect will it have on a person 
sitting in the next room? (Assume the wall between rooms is composed of concrete.) - None, 
because the wall will block the radiation. 
In which isotope is the strong nuclear force not strong...

Why are larger atoms more unstable? - Protons repel each other more and more as the atom gets 
larger. 
Three types of nuclear radiation - alpha radiation, 
beta radiation 
gamma radiation 
alpha decay equation - 4/2 He 
subtract 4 from mass number 
subtract 2 from atomic number 
beta decay equation...

An article about half-lives describes a daughter isotope. What is a daughter isotope? - the isotope 
that forms from the radioactive decay of a less stable isotope 
Examine the nuclear reaction: 1/1H + 1/0n -> 2/1H. Why is this classified as a nuclear reaction rather 
than a chemical reaction? - ...
