- Find the activity A of a sample containing 4E-6 g of 60/27 Co (T1/2= 5.27 years). (Use 59.93 u as the mass of 60/27 Co.) Radioactive decay constant: A)2.41E8 B)0.132 C)4.15E-9 D)7.60 Activity in curies: A)4.51E-3 Ci B)8.26E9 Ci C)1.43E8 Ci D)4.51 Ciplease solve question 3The half life for the radioactive decay of Ce-141 is 32.5 days. If the sample has an activity of 4.0 úCi after 130 days have elapsed, what was the initial activity, in microcuries, of the sample?
- The activity of C-14 can be used to determine the age of some archaeological discoveries. Suppose a sample of ancient wood which contains C-14 has an activity of 7.50 x 10^-4 Ci. The half life of C-14 is 5730 years. What will be the activity of this sample after 250 years?After 1.80 days, the activity of a sample of an unknown type radioactive material has decreased to 80.4% of the initial activity. What is the half-life of this material?Question 4. A syuthetic radioisotope is freshly prepared in a lab that has an ac- tivity of 10.0 mCi. If the activity of the radioisotope changes to 8.00 mCi, in 5.00 h, (a) What is the decay constant and half-life of the radioisotope in seconds? (b) How many atoms of the radioisotope were contained in the freshly prepared sam- ple? (e) What is the sample's activity in mCi 40.0 h after it is prepared?
