When the nucleus of an atom possesses either too many or too few neutrons compared to the number of protons it becomes unstable. These are called radioactive isotopes. Unstable nuclei split up in a process called radioactive decay and emit radioactive radiation..

N. , remaining at a particular instant in time is given by: . A = . λ . N . Where . A . = the activity, The traditional unit for activity is called the curie (. Ci. )..  . 1 curie = 3.7 x 1010 disintegrations per second (. Following the discovery of radioactivity by Henri Becquerel in 1896, many scientists were keen to find out more about it and understand where it came from.. In a radioactive atom, the nucleus is unstable and so it emits particles or waves of radiation to form a more stable atom. .
