Nuclear Chemistry
-found on the effects of nuclear energy and radioactivity on humans and the environment.
Chemical Reaction
The process by which there is a change in properties of the substances involved in the reaction, thus, producing new substances with new properties and composition.

Nuclear Reaction
Certain unstable isotopes called radioisotopes gain stability by making changes within the nuclei. These changes are accompanied by the emission of large amounts of radiation energy.
1. H is not affected by changes in temperature and pressure, or in the presence of catalyst.
2. It is unaffected by the compound an element is in.
3. It cannot be slowed down, speeded up or turned off.

Radioactivity
Refers to the property of uncertain unstable nuclides spontaneously emitting radiation in order to form more stable species.
The penetrating rays emitted by a radioactive element.
