Is radioactive waste dissolved in water before it is released?
yes
How does radioactive waste affect the earths physical and chemical cycle?
Any influence was detected.
Where do you put radioactive waste?
Deep underground. And away from water and people
What happens to fish inhabiting water polluted by radioactive waste?
They die.
How radioactive waste is disposed?
Most radioactive waste is sealed in special containers, and buried underground. Medical waste that may be radioactive is taken to landfills.

How does half life of radioactive waste affect the type of container in which the waste will be stored?
The longer the half-life of radioactive waste, the more consideration will have to be given to the design and construction of the container in which it is stored. This as well as where the container itself is stored. If we look at spent fuel from nuclear reactors, this highly radioactive and extremely long-lived radioactive waste will have to have a most substantial container. The storage container will have to last for many hundreds of years. Low level radioactive waste can be put up in less substantial containers and simply buried in an approved manner at an approved facility.

According to other half lives what did waste water in sinks do?
The waste water in sinks typically contained radium-226, a radioactive element with a half-life of about 1,600 years. Over time, half of the radium-226 in the waste water would decay into radon gas, emitting radiation that can pose health risks. Proper disposal and treatment of waste water is crucial to minimize exposure to radioactive contaminants.

Where is most high-level radioactive waste put?
radioactive waste go somewhere probally in a labratory
What kind of energy produces radioactive waste?
Nuclear Energy produces radioactive waste because if there isnt any sign of nuclear waste/energy in the sullotion/object then it wouldnt be counted as 'Radioactive'.
