Nuclear chemistry is the subfield of chemistry dealing with radioactivity, nuclear processes, such as nuclear transmutation, and nuclear properties.
It is the chemistry of radioactive elements such as the actinides, radium and radon together with the chemistry associated with equipment (such as nuclear reactors) which are designed to perform nuclear processes. This includes the corrosion of surfaces and the behavior under conditions of both normal and abnormal operation (such as during an accident). An important area is the behavior of objects and materials after being placed into a nuclear wastestorage or disposal site.
It includes the study of the chemical effects resulting from the absorption of radiation within living animals, plants, and other materials. The radiation chemistry controls much of radiation biology as radiation has an effect on living things at the molecular scale, to explain it another way the radiation alters the biochemicals within an organism, the alteration of the biomolecules then changes the chemistry which occurs within the organism, this change in chemistry then can lead to a biological outcome. As a result, nuclear chemistry greatly assists the understanding of medical treatments (such as cancerradiotherapy) and has enabled these treatments to improve.
It includes the study of the production and use of radioactive sources for a range of processes. These include radiotherapy in medical applications; the use of radioactive tracers within industry, science and the environment; and the use of radiation to modify materials such as polymers.[1]
It also includes the study and use of nuclear processes in non-radioactive areas of human activity. For instance, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is commonly used in synthetic organic chemistry and physical chemistry and for structural analysis in macromolecular chemistry.

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.
<span>In elastic deformation, strain is recovered when stress is removed, but in brittle deformation, the object fractures.

In brittle rocks, the failure point is very close the yield strength, and so can only accommodate very little strain before failure. Ductile rocks have a failure point that is much higher than the yield strength, and so can accommodate permanent strain before failure.
In order
to balance this, you have to count each element where the elements in the
reactants side and the product side should have equal number of molecules. The
balanced reaction is as follows:
2HI = H2 + I2
Answer:
It's true
Explanation:
Because in a physical change no now substance is formed And in this picture no new substance is formed.
I hope that helps you
