symbol of tritium

English - English
A radioactive isotope of the element hydrogen, (symbol T or 31H), having one proton and two neutrons
An atom of this isotope
Isotope of hydrogen used in nuclear bombs (see also Deuterium)
Tritium is the isotope of hydrogen with one proton and two neutrons, T = 3H Tritium decays with a half life of 12 3 years, and thus occurs in nature in concentrations too small to recovered Tritium, however, can be produced by neutron reactions with the lithium isotope 6Li Tritium is radioactive, decaying by beta decay to the helium isotope 3He For more information on hydrogen and its isotopes see the Los Alamos periodic table
Isotope of hydrogen with a nucleus consisting of one proton and two neutrons Tritium is radioaktive with a half-life of 12 3 days
the heaviest isotope of the element hydrogen It is three times heavier than hydrogen Tritium gas is used to boost the explosive power of most modern nuclear weapons and has a half-life of over 12 years
{i} isotope of hydrogen with an atomic weight of three (Chemistry)
A radioactive isotope of the element hydrogen, (symbol T or ), having one proton and two neutrons
The isotope of hydrogen whose nucleus is one proton and two neutrons
a radioactive isotope of hydrogen; atoms of tritium have three times the mass of ordinary hydrogen atoms
An isotope of hydrogen It is the heaviest, the only radioactive, and only artificial form of hydrogen and is used as fusion fuel in seaQuest
Often called hydrogen three Extra heavy hydrogen whose nucleus contains two neutrons and one proton It is three times as heavy as ordinary hydrogen and is radioactive
Its nucleus contains one proton and two neutrons. Tritium is radioactive (see radioactivity), with a half-life of 12.32 years. Its occurrence in natural water in an amount 10^-18 that of ordinary hydrogen is believed to be due to the action of cosmic rays. Some tritium is used in self-luminous materials (e.g., for watch dials) and as a radioactive tracer in chemical and biochemical studies. Nuclear fusion of deuterium and tritium at high temperatures releases enormous amounts of energy. Such reactions have been used in nuclear weapons and experimental power reactors. See also heavy water
The heaviest hydrogen isotope, containing one proton and two neutrons in the nucleus, produced most effectively by bombarding lithium-6 with neutrons In a fission weapon, tritium produces excess neutrons, which set off additional reactions in the weapon's fissile material In this way, tritium can either reduce the amount of fissile material required, or multiply (i e , boost) the weapon's destructive power as much as five times In fusion reactions, tritium and deuterium, another hydrogen isotope, bond at very high temperatures, releasing approximately 14 million electron-volts of energy per set of neutrons
The heaviest form of hydrogen, containing one proton and two neutrons Tritium is sometimes used in nuclear fusion, in conjunction with deuterium It differs from the other two forms of hydrogen, protium and deuterium, by the number of neutrons it contains
A radioactive isotope of hydrogen whose nucleus contains one proton and two neutrons
A radioactive isotope of hydrogen, having a mass of 3 units; it is produced in nuclear reactors by the action of neutrons on lithium nuclei
A material that glows in the dark Can be identified as the green material in the hands and above the markers of an analogue watch dial
Isotope of hydrogen, chemical symbol written as ^3H or T, with atomic number 1 but atomic weight approximately
Radioactive isotope of hydrogen The tritium nucleus, called a triton, contains one proton and two neutrons It is one form of heavy hydrogen, the other being deuterium
The isotope of hydrogen of mass 3 It is very rare, naturally radioactive, but can be made in a number of ways, including neutron absorption in lithium, deuterium , or heavy water
A radioactive isotope of hydrogen
A radioisotope of hydrogen that emits a low-energy electron These electrons are only able to travel very short distances through the air; this sheet of paper would stop a tritium electron if it were between you and a source of tritium The State Action Level for tritium in groundwater is 20,000 picoCuries per liter
