Answer:
Ionizing radiation is radiation with enough energy so that during an interaction with an atom, it can remove tightly bound electrons from the orbit of an atom, causing the atom to become charged or ionized.
Here we are concerned with only one type of radiation, ionizing radiation, which occurs in two forms - waves or particles. More information on Non-Ionizing radiation.
Forms of electromagnetic radiation. These differ only in frequency and wave length.
Heat waves
Radiowaves
Infrared light
Visible light
Ultraviolet light
X rays
Gamma rays
Longer wave length, lower frequency waves (heat and radio) have less energy than shorter wave length, higher frequency waves (X and gamma rays). Not all electromagnetic (EM) radiation is ionizing. Only the high frequency portion of the electromagnetic spectrum which includes X rays and gamma rays is ionizing.
