About this document
Radioactive Decay and Fission Lab Guide by Daniel Ammar is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses nuclear processes including alpha decay, beta decay, and nuclear fission. It uses PhET simulations to model these processes. For alpha decay of Polonium-211, it has students write nuclear equations and sketch decay curves. For beta decay, it has students write the nuclear equation and explain where the beta particle comes from. For nuclear fission, it has students describe how Uranium-235 can be made unstable through neutron bombardment, sketch a fission curve, and use the PhET simula
