C-14 is radioactive whereas c-12 is not ? give reason |

Answer» COSMIC rays – high-energy particles from beyond the SOLAR SYSTEM – bombard Earth's upper atmosphere continually, in the PROCESS creating the unstable carbon-14. Carbon-14 is considered a radioactive isotope of carbon. Because it's unstable, carbon-14 will eventually decay back to carbon-12 isotopes |
