UPDATE: I have (finally) fixed the mass number location on the isotopic notation!

Mr. Key outlines isotopes, isotopic short hand, half-life, and radioisotopes, as well as how medical isotopes can be used and why we should be concerned about isotope shortages.

Please note: Calculation of Half-life is NOT covered. This will be covered in class.

Please note that all questions, comments and critiques are welcome. However, because the primary purpose of these videos is educational for students/educators, the comments are moderated. Any comments that are deemed abusive, inappropriate, or unrelated to the topic matter will not be posted and the user potentially blocked.
