Why does radioactive parent material break down into daughter material?
A fundamental property of radioactive material is that the atomic nucleus has an unstable configuration. The nucleus of a single atom of such material may break down at any instant, or may never break down at all, but with a large number of atoms in a collection, there is a statistical probability that half of them will break down in a given amount of time, which is known as the "half life" for that radioactive material. Exactly why this should be so is a mystery which cannot be adequately explained, but is observed and accepted as such. A deeper understanding of this phenomenon would probably give us a better insight into the true nature of the universe as a whole.

Why should computers and cell phones be recycled?
Three reasons 1) There are noble metals that can be recovered for their value 2) Some of the parts can be salvaged and reused 3) There are toxic material in them that should be properly disposed
Radioactive waste bag color?
Radioactive waste bags would usually be either yellow or bright orange, with the radioactivity trefoil printed on it along with warnings. It should be noted, that though Radioactive waste SHOULD be stored in Yellow bags, and tagged as "Radioactive Waste", Not all yellow bags contain radioactive waste, And, yellow bags that one finds loose, without a tag, MAY BE Radioactive Waste, and treated as a "SPILL", or "Loss of control of Radioactive Material". At that point, proper personnel should be notified, and the person finding the bag, should stand fast, allowing NO ONE to go anywhere NEAR the bag, until it has been disposed of by trained and certified personnel, and the area around and leading to the bag, declared "Clean". Naturally, this type of action and problem usually only occurs in and around places that handle Radioactive Material/Waste. But, a Hospital, DOES quite often handle both low level, and HIGH level Radioactive Materiel, and therefore, Yellow bags, should be assumed Radioactive, properly tagged or not.
How should an explosive material and a radioactive material be stowed when they are carried together?
the same when separated
Do not recharge or dispose of in fire?
The device should not be recharged or disposed of in fire as it can lead to fires, explosions, or release of toxic fumes from its battery. It should be properly recycled or disposed of according to local regulations.
Where in the laboratory should waste chemicals be disposed of properly?
Waste chemicals should be disposed of in designated hazardous waste collection areas in the laboratory. These areas are equipped to handle and store hazardous materials safely until they can be disposed of properly by a licensed waste management company. It is important to follow all local regulations and guidelines for chemical waste disposal.
How do you dispose of dell ink cartridges?

Are radiation symptoms contagious?
No, radiation sickness/poisoning is not contagious. This is because, while the infected person does possess radiation, they're not radioactive. However, the source that gave them the radiation is still radioactive, and, as it has the risk of contaminating others, should be professionally disposed of.

Which are materials that cannot be broken down?
Materials such as glass, certain plastics, and metals like aluminum and stainless steel are difficult to break down due to their strong molecular structures. These materials may persist in the environment for long periods if not properly recycled or disposed of.
