Dmitri Mendeleev arranged elements by increasing atomic weights and made use of octaves and triads in his periodic table. The heaviest known element in 1930 was uranium, with atomic number 92. Particle accelerators like cyclotrons use magnetic and electric fields to speed up particles to overcome repulsion between particles and target nuclei. Cyclotrons use alternating electric fields to spiral particles in a magnetic field. Artificial nuclear transmutation is induced in a laboratory, while spontaneous nuclear transmutation occurs naturally. Beta decay involves transforming a neutron to a proton with electron emission. Alpha decay involves helium nucleus emission. Fission splits a large nucleus into smaller ones with energy release. Electron capture decreases the

I.Identify the word/words that best describe the statement below.
1. Made use of symbols to represent elements.
2. Made use of Triads. 3.Made use of Octaves. 4.Arranged elements by increasing atomic weights. 5. Made use of spectroscopic data that lead him to arrange elements by increasing atomic number. 6. A German word which means number 7. It is the heaviest known element by 1930. Its atomic number is 92. 8. It is a device that is used to speed up particles to overcome the repulsion between the particles and the target atomic nuclei by using magnetic and electrical fields. 9. It is a particle accelerator that uses alternating electric field to accelerate particles that move in a spiral path in the presence of a magnetic field. 10. Type of nuclear transmutation which is not spontaneous and artificially done. 11. Type of nuclear transmutation that happens spontaneously. 12-15. Determine what types of Nuclear Decay Reaction below. 12. The radioactive substance will lose 2 neutrons and 2 protons to reach stability. The neutrons and protons lost will form a helium 13. The substance will have one of its neutrons transformed into a proton and in the process, will release a beta particle which is technically just an electron. 14. The radioactive substance will be so unstable that it will split into two smaller atoms to relieve the stress and have stability. This will release energy. 15. The substance will have one of its protons transformed into a neutron. The mass number will be the same but the atomic number will be decreased. The product released will be a positron. This is an electron with a positive charge.
