Interpretation:
The number of a-particles emitted in 1.0 s from 1.0 ng sample of
Concept introduction:
The nuclear reactions are a type of chemical process which leads to the formation of some new nuclei with the emission of certain particles. Usually, alpha or beta particles or gamma rays are emitted as a side product with some new daughter nuclei. The nuclei which show spontaneous decay with time are known as radioactive nuclei. The radioactive decay follows the first-order kinetic and the half-life is inversely proportional to the decay constant of the radioactive decay. The radioactive decay follows the first-order kinetic and the half-life is inversely proportional to the decay constant of the radioactive decay.

- The radioactive isotope 64Cu is used in the form of copper(II) acetate to study Wilsons disease. The isotope has a half-life of 12.70 hours. What fraction of radioactive copper(II) acetate remains after 64 hours?arrow_forwardThe isotope S3890r one of the extremely hazardous species in the residues from nuclear power generation. The strontium in a 0.500-g sample diminishes to 0.393 g in 10.0 y. Calculate the half-life.arrow_forwardRecently, the skeleton of King Richard III was found under a parking lot in England. If tissue samples from the skeleton) contain about 93.79% of the carbon-14 expected in living tissue, what year did King Richard III die? The half-life fur carbon-14 is 5730 years.arrow_forward
