Questions and Answers

What is the classification based on to determine if a nuclear reaction is spontaneous or induced?

  • Type of radioactive element involved
  • Energy released during the reaction
  • Formation of new element
  • Whether the reaction takes place naturally or not (correct)

    • Which type of nuclear reactions involve a radioactive element spontaneously transforming into another element by emitting α, β, or γ-rays?

  • Natural radioactivity reactions
  • Artificial radioactivity reactions
  • Induced nuclear reactions
  • Spontaneous nuclear reactions (correct)

    • In artificial or induced radioactivity, what is observed when a stable non-radioactive element is bombarded with a suitable bombarding particle?

  • Only stable elements are produced
  • No new elements are formed
  • Formation of unstable radioactive elements (correct)
  • Radioactivity is observed

    • What is the term used for reactions where a stable non-radioactive element is bombarded and no radioactivity is observed?
