  2. Isotopes of chromium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_chromium

    Chromium-51 is a synthetic radioactive isotope of chromium having a half-life of 27.7 days and decaying by electron capture with emission of gamma rays (0.32 MeV); it is used to label red blood cells for measurement of mass or volume, survival time, and sequestration studies, for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal bleeding, and to label platelets to study their survival.

  3. Table of nuclides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_nuclides

    Isotope half-lives. The darker more stable isotope region departs from the line of protons (Z) = neutrons (N), as the element number Z becomes larger. Isotopes are nuclides with the same number of protons but differing numbers of neutrons; that is, they have the same atomic number and are therefore the same chemical element. Isotopes neighbor ...

  4. List of elements by stability of isotopes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_elements_by...

    An even number of protons or neutrons is more stable (higher binding energy) because of pairing effects, so even–even nuclides are much more stable than odd–odd. One effect is that there are few stable odd–odd nuclides: in fact only five are stable, with another four having half-lives longer than a billion years.

  5. List of nuclides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nuclides

    The number of protons (Z column) and number of neutrons (N column). energy column The column labeled "energy" denotes the energy equivalent of the mass of a neutron minus the mass per nucleon of this nuclide (so all nuclides get a positive value) in MeV , formally: m n − m nuclide / A , where A = Z + N is the mass number.

  6. Chromium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium

    Naturally occurring chromium is composed of four stable isotopes; 50 Cr, 52 Cr, 53 Cr and 54 Cr, with 52 Cr being the most abundant (83.789% natural abundance). 50 Cr is observationally stable , as it is theoretically capable of decaying to 50 Ti via double electron capture with a half-life of no less than 1.3 × 10 18 years.

  7. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    All elements have multiple isotopes, variants with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. For example, carbon has three naturally occurring isotopes: all of its atoms have six protons and most have six neutrons as well, but about one per cent have seven neutrons, and a very small fraction have eight neutrons. Isotopes are ...

  8. Isotopes of manganese - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_manganese

    53 Mn decays to 53 Cr with a half-life of 3.7 million years. Because of its relatively short half-life, 53 Mn occurs only in tiny amounts due to the action of cosmic rays on iron in rocks. [ 4 ] Manganese isotopic contents are typically combined with chromium isotopic contents and have found application in isotope geology and radiometric dating .

  9. List of elements by atomic properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_elements_by_atomic...

    This is a list of chemical elements and their atomic properties, ordered by atomic number (Z).. Since valence electrons are not clearly defined for the d-block and f-block elements, there not being a clear point at which further ionisation becomes unprofitable, a purely formal definition as number of electrons in the outermost shell has been used.
