Radioactivity
To calculate the amount of radioactive substance remaining after an integral number of half-lives have passed.
Radiation and Radioactive Decay
Alpha, beta, and gamma radiation produce different amounts and kinds of damage in matter and have different penetrations.Three mostcommon forms of readioactive decay (alpha, beta, and gamma) and know how the nucleus changes in each type of decay.

FUSION

Fission and Fusion
The energy release per gram of material is much larger in nuclear fision or fission reactions than in chemical reactions. The change in mass (Calculated by E = mc2) is small but significant in nuclear reactions.
NUCLEAR WEAPONS
Chemistry in Nuclear Weapons .
Nuclear Weapons
Protons and neutrons in the nucleus are held together by nuclear forces that overcome teh electromagnetic repulsion between the protons
NUCLEAR REACTORS
Naturally occurring isotopes of elements are radioactive, as are isotopes formed in nuclear reactions.
NUCLEAR EQUATIONS
Protons and neutrons have substructures and consist of particles called quarks
