What is the Difference Between Radioactivity and
Transmutation?
Both radioactivity and transmutation are chemical
processes that involve the change of atomic nuclei
to form a new chemical element from an existing
chemical element. The key difference between
radioactivity and transmutation is that radioactivity
refers to the natural transmutation, whereas
transmutation refers to the change of one chemical
element into another via either natural or artificial
means.
