Give your chemistry students a focused look at radioactive decay types with ninety questions built for real classroom use, whether you are starting a new unit or reviewing before a test.

Sample questions include "What is emitted during positron emission?", "Which type of radiation involves the emission of helium nuclei?", and "What decay type releases particles with a +2 charge?"

What's Inside?

• 30 Multiple Choice questions as a separate print ready PDF worksheet
• 30 True or False questions as a separate print ready PDF worksheet
• 30 Short Answer questions as a separate print ready PDF worksheet
• Includes Answer Key with Explanations for all 90 questions
• 6 print ready PDF files, 26 pages in total

All three worksheets cover the same topic in different question styles. That means you can use one as a pretest, another for practice or homework, and the third as a follow up quiz, without students ever seeing the same question twice.
