Students have asked these similar questions
The barium isotope 133Ba has a half-life of 10.5 years. A sample begins with 1.0 × 1010 133Ba atoms. How many are left after (a) 2 years, (b) 20 years, and (c) 200 years?
A pure sample of 226 Ra contains 2.0 x 10^14 atoms of the isotope. If the half life of. 226 Ra = 1.6 x 10^3 years, what is the decay rate of this sample?
You are experimenting with a radioactive sample of polonium. At the end of 14.0 minutes, exactly 1/16 of the polonium remains. The corresponding half-life, T2 , of polonium is: a. 0.875 minutes. b. 1.14 minutes. c. 1.75 minutes. d. 3.50 minutes. e. 4.67 minutes.
