introduction
Isotopes are same atoms with the same number of
protons but different number of neutrons

let’s not be complicated, you can assume this

isotopes as twins/triplets.

 03 RELATIVE ATOMIC MASS
— to calculate the atomic mass
- depends on the Natural Abudance of isotopes
in a sample.

04 NATURAL ABUDANCE
Natural Abudance is the percentage of isotopes
present in a natural sample of element.

gold, silver, diamond, etc.

USES OF ISOTOPES
 MEDICINE
Cobalt-60 -Kill cancer cell without
surgery (radiotherapy)
Iodine-131 - treatment of thyroid
disoders (hyperthyroidism and thyroid
cancer)
AGRICULTURE
Phosphorus-32 - Study of plant
metabolism
NUCLEAR
Uranium-235 - Generating
electricity trough nuclear power
generator
ARCHEOLOGY
Carbon-14 - estimation of artefacts or
fossils age
Lead-201 - Determinig the age of sand
and earth layer up to 80 years
INDUSTRY
Hydrogen-3 -As a detector of
study sewage and liquid waste
ENGINEERING
Sodium-14 - Detect leekage in
underground pipes

GENERAL
CONCLUSIONS
 CONCLUSIONS
Isotopes are members of a family of an element that all
have the same number of protons but different numbers
of neutrons.

Isotopes have unique properties, and these properties

make them useful in diagnostics and treatment
applications. They are important in nuclear medicine, oil
and gas exploration, basic research, and national
security.
