This interactive simulation allows students to explore nuclear decay. They can visualize how alpha, beta, and gamma decay alter the composition of an atom's nucleus and write corresponding nuclear equations. A second tab demonstrates the different penetration powers of each radiation type through various common materials.
This interactive simulation models the phenomenon of radioactive decay. Students can set the initial number of parent atoms and a specific half-life, then observe as they randomly transform into stable daughter atoms. The tool provides a real-time visualization of the atoms and graphs the classic exponential decay curve.
This virtual simulation provides a dynamic environment for students to explore and compare the fundamental principles of nuclear fission and fusion. Users can initiate chain reactions in the fission lab or combine particles to create new elements in the fusion lab, visualizing energy release and particle transformations in real-time.
This interactive tool allows students to practice and master nuclear chemistry concepts. Users can predict the products of various decay types, including alpha, beta, and positron emission, as well as differentiate between fission and fusion reactions. Immediate feedback and a final review help reinforce learning and identify areas for improvement.
This simulation explores the two primary nuclear fusion pathways by which stars create Helium-4: the Proton-Proton (P-P) Chain, dominant in Sun-like stars, and the Carbon-Nitrogen-Oxygen (CNO) Cycle, prevalent in more massive stars. Users select particles to fuse, observe the resulting reactions, and see the energy released, gaining insight into the complex processes powering stellar energy.
