Find a specific example of where nuclear power/energy/technology is being used and write and telling us about your example. Make sure to include the specific element information. State the Isotope name. When was it discovered? What is the half-life? What is the chemical reaction? How does it decay? (for example, "it decays with the emission of an alpha-particle") Include what nuclear processes are being used and how it might be a benefit to man-kind or a danger. Also include information about any controversies that may surround your example, along with your own opinion about it.

You can smell the odor of cooking onions from far away. You can smell the odor of cooking onions from far away. As onions are heated the volume of the gas causing the smell increases. The pressure of the gas which causes the smell is very high. The random movement with high velocities leads to diffusion of the gas particles. Since gas particles are very small, they can penetrate through large volumes of air.
