Oxygen-18

Function:
Function:
used primarily for its radioactive properties.
used primarily for its radioactive properties.
It undergoes beta decay, releasing beta
particles (high-energy electrons) as it
It decays by emitting gamma rays, but it
transforms into stable sulfur-32. This

emission of beta particles is harnessed for
radiation. This makes it safe for medical and
various applications.
