text: Ionizing radiation is a specific type of energy transmission (radiation) that has enough energy to remove electrons from atoms, turning atoms into ions.
text: Non-ionizing radiation has less energy than ionizing radiation.
text: Ionizing radiation has so much energy it can knock electrons out of atoms, a process known as ionization.
text: In short, Ionizing radiation has enough energy to free electrons from the atoms or molecules they are attached to, and therefore ionizing them.
text: Non-ionizing radiation has enough energy to move atoms in a molecule around or cause them to vibrate, but not enough to remove electrons from atoms.
text: Ionizing radiation has enough energy to potentially cause damage to DNA.
text: Ionizing radiation can have enough energy to produce ions (molecules or atoms that are charged).
text: Ionizing Radiation is radiation that has enough energy to cause electrons to be knocked out of their orbital shells in an atom, or to break chemical bonds within a molecule.
text: Ionizing radiation has enough energy that it can remove electrons from the orbit of an atom, causing the atom to become charged (or “ionized”).
text: Ionizing radiation is a specific type of radiation that has enough energy to eject an electron from some atom.
text: Non-ionizing radiation has enough energy to move atoms in a molecule around or cause them to vibrate, but not enough to remove electrons from atoms.
text: Ionizing radiation has enough energy to damage the DNA in cells, which in turn may lead to cancer.
text: Non-ionizing radiation has enough energy to move atoms around in a molecule or cause them to vibrate.
text: Non-ionizing radiation has enough energy to excite electrons to move to a higher state, releasing photons of electromagnetic radiation such as visible light, near ultraviolet, and microwaves.
text: In contrast, ionizing radiation has enough energy to ionize (strip away an electron leaving an unpaired electron behind) atoms and molecules, hence the name.
text: It has enough energy to alter atoms, molecules and DNA.
text: Non-ionizing radiation has enough energy to move atoms in a molecule around and cause them to vibrate, which makes the atom heat up, but not enough to remove the electrons from the atoms.
text: Non-ionizing radiation is on a longer wave length and essentially has less energy to cause harm to single cells or molecules (1).
text: Ionizing radiation has so much energy it can knock electrons out of atoms, a process known as ionization.
