In this episode, Hank welcomes you to the new age, to the new age, welcome to the new age. Here he’ll talk about transmutation among elements, isotopes, calculating half-life, radioactive decay, and spontaneous fission.

I learned
thank you 2013 hank for helping 2022 me in nuclear physics.
Now, I love my science teacher, but he really did not explain this well… thank you so much; I can actually do my work now!!! Also was anyone else slightly distracted by how awesome Hank's shirt is?
this is stupid
how soes thorium turn in to xenon if protons are constant
0:13 Radioactive By Imagine Dragons Reference??
SLOW DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!
Who else is watching this for Chemistry during qurantine?
Does anyone feel like he talks a bit too fast
So nobody is gonna talk about HALF-LIFE
CHENISTRY 🙁
THANK YOU your videos really help me
Came here searching for FUSION AND FISSION! Interesting explanation BUT TO FAST! Can you just slow a little bit?? Or you count on only Fluently English Speaking Audience (those who have mother tongue English) !!??
0:19 why does that look like minecraft?? is it minecraft or am i going crazy…
These videos are brilliant
Bro minecraft is the best
Doesn't Xenon have 54 protons?
I don’t know if anyone else pointed this out yet, but when my son was doing a homework assignment based on this video, he came to the part about the usefulness of Californium. He was going to use the equation as shown in the video but noticed that the numbers didn’t add up. We looked it up together and it turns out to be Californium-252 that is a neutron emitter, not 254. I wouldn’t have noticed this if it weren’t for his homework. It should probably be corrected in case there are any other homework assignments about Californium.
I'm can't stop laughing after 8:28 HAHAHAHAHA
In the spontaneous fission shouldn't be 252 Cf and not 254 Cf?
6:40 it is protactinium
So, the half-life of Bismuth is 7.7 Septillion years. (7,700,000,000,000,000,000,000,000)
BRUUUUUHHHH
the dislikes are 696 right now
For future reference, you talk too fast and too much.
He Looks like my uncle
The only reason i know of transmutation is because of skyrim
When your teacher just asigns videos for you to watch during online school and you break your computer because the video is worse than your actual teacher
wait so how do you calculate half life??
3.6 Roetgens, not great not terrible
