9-45 A radioactive isotope with an activity (intensity) of 80.0 mCi per vial is delivered to a hospital. The vial contains 7.0 cc of liquid. The instruction is to administer 7.2 mCi intravenously. How many cubic centimeters of liquid should be used for one injection?
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The amount in cubic cm of radioactive sample from
Concept Introduction:
Activity of radioactive radiation depends on amount of radioactive sample.
Explanation of Solution
Activity of radiation is proportional to the number of radioactive atoms present in a radioactive sample. So, the activity will be proportional to the volume injected intravenously.
