Nuclear stabilityGeneral facts and rules Neutrons stabilize the nucleus More protons require more neutrons to stabilize the nucleus Up to Z 20, most stable nuclei have (neutron/proton) ratio 1 larger Z g larger n/p ratio (2.5 for Bi-209) All isotopes with Z 83 are radioactive - undergo spontaneous decay togive a stable isotope Magic numbers - 2, 8, 20, 50, 82, 126 protons or neutrons Even number of p and n - generally more stable Belt of stability nuclei outside are radioactiveGCh23-9

Belt of stabilityThe stable nuclei are located in anarea of the beltThe most radioactive nuclei areoutside this beltThe ratio of (n/p) 1 stablilityWhen a nucleus is above the belt and it has the (n/p) ration bigger than 1 itundergous the following process (called -b-particle emission)10n g11p 0-1bwhich increases the number of protons in the nucleus making the ratio (n/p)closer to 1GCh23-10

Nuclear binding energy Energy required to break up a nucleus into protons and neutrons Mass defect - difference in mass of an atom and the sum of the masses ofits protons, neutrons, and electrons E (Dm)c2m mass difference (kg)c speed of light (3 x 108 m/s)E energy liberated (Joules)GCh23-12

Mass defectDifference in mass of an atom and the sum of the masses of its protons,neutrons, and electronsExampleF isotope has an atomic mass 18.9984 amu. Mass of 11H atom (1.007825amu), mass of the neutron (1.008665 amu).199The mass of 9 11H atoms (9 protons and 9 electrons) is9 x 1.007825 amu 9.070425 amu 10.08665 amuand the mass of 10 neutrons is10 x 1.008665 amuTherefore, the atomic mass of a 199F calculated from known numbers ofelectrons, protons and neutrons isGCh23-13

9.070425 amu 10.08665 amu 19.15705 amuwhich is larger than 18.9984 amu (the measured mass of 199F) by 0.1587 amu.The difference between the mass of an atom and the sum of masses of individualparticles is called mass defect.Based on the mass-energy equivalence relationship we can calculate the amountof energyDE (Dm)c2DE energy of the product - energy of the reactantDm mass of the product - mass of the reactantDm -0.1587 amuDE (-0.1587 amu) (3.0 x 108 m/s)2 -1.43 x 1016 amu m2 / s2GCh23-14

Radioactive datingThe half-live of radioactive isotopes have ben used as “atomic clock” todetermine the ages of certain objectsCarbon dating 146C146C is produced in atmosphere and this isotope decays according to the equation146C g147N 0-1bt1/2 5740 yearsCO2 in living plants has fixed amount of 146C taken from the atmosphere. Whenplant dies, 146C decay begins, and the concentration of this isotope decreaseswith time. If we know a current concentration of 146C in a dead plant with theconcentration of this isotope in a living plant, we can use the formulaln( Nt / N0 ) - l tto estimate the time of plant deadGCh23-25

Nuclear transmutationsBombardment of nuclei in particle accelerator - may form new isotopesHistorically, the first reaction of nuclear transmutation was performed byRutherford in 1919147N 42ag178O 11pwhere oxygen-17 was produced with the emission of a proton.

Atomic BombThe first application of nuclear fission was in development of the atomic bomb.A small atomic bomb is equilvalent to 20,000 ton of TNT (trinitrotoluene)1 ton TNT releases20,000 ton TNT releases4 x 109 J of energy8 x 1013 J of energy1 mole (235 g) of uranium-235 releases 2 x 1013 J of energy, therefore the massof the isotope present in a small atomic bomb is(235 g) (8 x 1013 J) / (2 x 1013 J) 1 kgThe critical mass if formed in a bomb using a conventional explisive like TNTUranium-235 was used in HiroshimaPlutonium-239 was used in NagasakiGCh23-32

Nuclear ReactorLight water reactors (H2O)Most of the nuclear reactors in US are light water reactors (H2O)Water is used to transport heat of the nuclear reaction outside the reaction and togenerate electricityUranium-235 is used as a reactor fuleThe nuclear reaction is controled bycadmium or boron rodes which captureneutrons11348Cd 105B 1010n gn g1144873Cd gLi 42aGCh23-33

Heavy water reactors (D2O)Heavy water absorbs neutrons less efficiently than light water, and thereforeheavy water reactors do not require enriched uranium, which is needed in lightwater reactorsHeavy water is produced from light water by fractional distillation or electrolysis ofordinary water which includes of very small amount of heavy water.Canada is currently the only nation producing heavy water for nuclear reactorsBreeder reactorsThe reactor using uranium fuel, from which it produces more fissionable materialsthan it uses23892U 23992U g23993Np g10n g2399323923992UNp 94Pu 0-10b-1bTherefore nonfissionable uranium-238 is converted into fissonable plutonium-239GCh23-34

Nuclear FusionCombining of small nuclei into large onesProduces even more energy that fissionNuclear fusion occurs constantly in the sun. The sun is made up mostly ofhydrogen and hellium. At the temperature 15 million C the following reactions arebelieved to take place21H 1132He 311H H g21132HeHe gH g4221He 2 11HH 01bGCh23-35

At this temperaturemolecules can not exist losing electrons, and forming a new state of matter whichis called plasmaPlasmaThe state of matter formed at very high temperature (million of degrees Celsius)from a gaseous mixture of positive ions and electronsTechnically plasma can be formed inside a very strong magnetic field keeping theparticles togetherGCh23-36

Uses of isotopesStructure determinations (helps locate atoms via radioactive emission)Mechanism studies (trace steps via radioactivity)ExampleThe formula of thiosulfate ion is S2O32-. The ion is prepared from the reactionSO32- (aq) S (s) g S2O32- (aq)When the ion is treated with an acid, the reaction is reversedS2O32- (aq) g SO32- (aq) S (s)and the elemental sulfur is precipitated. Chemists were uncertain whether thetwo sulfur atoms occpied equivalence position in the ionGCh23-38

Two possible structures were proposedThe first reaction started with elemental surfur enriched with the radioactivesulfur-35. After precipitation the label sulfur is found in the solid elemental sulfor,and not in the solution, which indicates that nonlinear structure is valid, wheresulfur atoms occupy non equivalent positionsGCh23-39

Medicine Diagnosis (measure radioactivity)-Sodium-24 - traces blood flow-Iodine-125 goes to thyroid and gives way to view activity-Technetium-99 - traces organs such as heartTherapy (destroying tumor sites)-Cobalt-60 - g radiation directed at tumor sites-Iodine-131 destroys overactive thyroidGCh23-40

Biological effects of radiationThe fundamental unit of radioactivity is curie (Ci)1 Ci 3.7 x 1010 nuclear disintegrations (results of radioactive decay) persecondThis decay rate is equivalence to that of 1 g of radium. A milicurie (mCi) is onethousand of a curie.Example10 mCi (carbon-14) (10 x 10-3) (3.7 x 1010) 3.7 x 108disintegrations per secondThe unit of the absorbed dose of radiation is the rad (radiation absorbed dose)1 rad amount of radiation that results in the absorption of 1 x 10-2 Jenergy per kilogram of irradiated materialGCh23-41

The biological effect of radiation also depends on the part of the body and thetype of radiationRBE-relative biological effectivness 1 for beta and gamma 10 for alphaGenerallya particlesusually have the least penetration powerb particlesusually have stronger penetration powerg raysusually have the strongest penetration powerRadiation can remove electrons from atom and molecules forming ions andradicalsGCh23-42

on top of it, including the ASP.NET MVC, Entity Framework, and Enterprise Library. Since it has been around for a long time, most legacy and existing .NET applications are developed for the .NET Framework, and it also has the richest set of libraries, assemblies, and an ecosystem of packages. One of the key challenges for .NET Framework applications is that backward- compatibility can be .
