A medical technidan is working with the four samples of radionuclides listed in the table below. Initially, each sample contains 10.00 umol of the radionuclide. First, order the samples by decreasing initial radioactivity. Then calculate how long it will take for the amount of radionuclide in each sample to decrease to 1/32 of the initial amount.

A worker in a laboratory unknowingly became exposed to a sample of radio-labeled sodium iodide made from iodine-131 (beta emitter, t1/2 = 8.07 days). The mistake was realized 28 days after the accidental exposure, at which time the activity of the sample was 25.6 × 10-5 Ci/g. The safety officer needed to know how active the sample was at the time of the exposure. Calculate the activity value in Ci/g.
