Given illustrations, symbols, or descriptions, students will balance nuclear equations.

A laboratory activity that teaches the difficult concept of radioactive decay by means of a fluid (shampoo) flowing through holes from an upper to a lower beaker. Using the exponential decay equation, students then 'date' the shampoo....

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] This lesson explains the types of radioactive decay and how to write nuclear equations. Includes simulations for learning about alpha and beta particle decay.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] How and why beta decay occurs, its dangers, beta-minus and beta-plus decay and how to write a balanced nuclear equation for beta decay.

[Free Registration/Login Required] Use the provided symbols to generate and build chemical equations. Then answer one multiple choice challenge question about the topic.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] How and why alpha decay occurs, its dangers and how to write a balanced nuclear equation for alpha decay.

Students examine actual radioactive decay data collected in an honors chemistry class to find an equation which best fits the data and allows a person to predict the count after certain periods of time have elapsed. Students review all...

This chapter study guide about nuclear energy allows viewers to discover the main points of nuclear energy. Learn how to write nuclear equations, draw nuclide symbols, learn how nuclear energy is a major source of energy worldwide.

Based off of the hit television show NUMB3RS, this lesson introduces students to the topic of exponential decay and half-life. The lesson is built around Cesium-137, a radioactive isotope, and it's declining radioactivity over the course...
