Expert Solution
Step 1 radioactivity
in radioactivity is defined as unstable nuclei is decay into stable nuclei and emits electromagnetic rays ,
Step 2 calculation
reaction between half life and= decay amount
A = A° (1/2)n
n = no. Of half life = t / t1/2
A° = initial amount
amount after 1000 years = 2g
t1/2 = 1599 years,
n = 1000/1599 = 0.625
2 = A° (1/2)0.625
