Fallout from nuclear weapons tests in the atmosphere is mainly 90Sr and l37Cs, which have 28.6- and 32.2-y halflives, respectively. Atmospheric tests were terminated in most countries in 1963, although China only did so in 1980. It has been found that environmental activities of these two isotopes are decreasing taster than their halflives. Why might this be?

2H is a loosely hound isotope of hydrogen. Called deuterium or heavy hydrogen, it is stable but relatively rareit is 0.015% of natural hydrogen. Note that deuterium has Z = N, which should tend to make it more tightly bound, but both are odd numbers. Calculate BE/A, the binding energy per nucleon, for 2H and compare it with the approximate value obtained from line graph in Figure 31.27.
