Step 1
Radioactive decay is a first order reaction.
Conversion of days into hours:
1 day2.5 days===24 hrs2.5×2460 hrs1 day=24 hrs2.5 days=2.5×24=60 hrs
Calculation of k:
k===0.693t1/20.69315 hrs0.0462 hrs−1k=0.693t1/2=0.69315 hrs=0.0462 hrs-1
Step 2
Radioactive decay is a first order reaction, therefore:
[A]=[Ao] e−kt[A]=[Ao] e-kt
where [A] is the final amount remained at time t, [Ao] is the initial amount.
Putting values:
[A]====102.0 ng×e−0.0462 hrs−1×60 hrs102.0 ng×e−2.772102.0 ng×0.062546.38 ng[A]=102.0 ng×e-0.0462 hrs-1×60 hrs=102.0 ng×e-2.772=102.0 ng×0.06254=6.38 ng
Thus 6.38 ng of sodium-24 remained.
