well according to the something definition water is a base and an acid because it accepts hydron and donates hydron (under certain situations)
amphiprotic iirc

i think it’d turn to dust at that point

It wouldn’t really apply both effects at once but moreso change between the two with the same energy

Because of the way bases work, it would make objects radioactive

How on earth can a reaction cause decay?? Huh? As far as I know, bases don’t destabilise the atom?
As far as I know, acids and bases work by either removing or adding electrons to the thing it ‘touches’, thereby changing how it reacts and thus its isotope
Some isotopes are radioactive, for example potassium
A tiny amount of radioactive potassium exists in banana’s, but that’s relatively harmless
My reasoning is that bases can change so much of the substance at once into (one of) its radioactive isotopes, that it becomes dangerous radioactive
That’s what every element does, that doesn’t mean they suddenly turn into a radioisotope? Electrons, iirc, do not affect radioactivity. It is the nucleus that does. Elements cannot change into other elements unless through decay or nuclear reaction, as in affecting the nucleus, they can only change into different compounds.
I think you mean they exchange hydrogen ions (protons) but if you have a source for this shit do share
I don’t see any research outlining acids turning into radioisotopes upon reaction…
I saw what you edited
yeah I’m adding more information onto it because I forgot to add it before 
That’s not what I meant though
I meant that stuff like potassium could change into a radioactive version because it received too much electrons
yeah can’t that only happen through nuclear reactions, ain’t no way it’s happening normally
Potassium has naturally occurring radioisotopes too by the way, as far as I know (though I don’t know much so I could be proven wrong) a reaction can’t turn soemthing into a radioisotope until it disrupts and doesnt react normally with another atom’s valence shell
Idk I’m asking you
like I said ion know if that can happen but I think if said electron is forced on the potassium it might try to decay, but through which method I’m not sure most of them involve the nucleus because that’s typically how radioactive decay occurs
Actually, make a separate topic for this lmao
neutrons are what determines isotopes, electrons determine ions, which are not associated with radioactivity

I thought it was both neutrons and protons collectively but good to hear
