space and matter. This energy release
is in the form of rays or particles and is
emitted from unstable atoms or various
radiation-producing devices, such as
televisions and X-ray machines.
1. Atoms
The elements that make up all
matter are composed of atoms.
Atoms have three basic particles;
protons, neutrons and electrons.
a.
Stable atoms
Most atoms are stable and do not
emit excess energy.
b.
Unstable atoms
Unstable atoms emit excess energy.
This energy is called radiation.
