I agree 6C14 is unstable but how you say this is radioactive element which element called radioactive element what reason what is application of radioactive element in the earth and how much amount present everyday.

Radiocarbon is formed when the neutrons which have a proton number of +1. When the Nitrogen, are bombarded with neutrons, an electron is removed from the Nitrogen, producing Radiocarbon.

Did this collision need artificial?

Carbon-14 is a problem in nuclear plants because it is radioactive. It is produced as a result of nitrogen atom's nucleus being hit by a fast neutron. The fast neutrons are result of collision between a slow neutron and uranium atoms in the nuclear reactor.

Can we use other atom except nitrogen?

MESFIN said:   1 decade ago
How we get fast neutron?

Oteng said:   1 decade ago
What is radiocarbon?

Yasha said:   1 decade ago
What is radiocarbon dating? Describe it. Is there only one source of fast moving neutrons i.e. sun? Can we define all living creature's age by radioactive dating? Or only human's age.
