Answer:

Radioactive elements are unstable isotopes that release subatomic particles or energy as they decay. Alpha decay releases two protons and two neutrons. ... Humans can harness the power of radioactive decay to make energy, such as using uranium-235 in nuclear fission.

Explanation:

enough neutrons are added to an atom, it becomes unstable and decays. A good example of this is tritium, a radioactive isotope of hydrogen naturally present at extremely low levels.

Explanation:

Radioactive elements are made up of atoms whose nuclei are unstable and give off atomic radiation as part of a process of attaining stability. The emission of radiation transforms radioactive atoms into another chemical element, which may be stable or may be radioactive such that it undergoes further decay.

If enough neutrons are added to an atom, it becomes unstable and decays. A good example of this is tritium, a radioactive isotope of hydrogen naturally present at extremely low levels.
