A sample of rock was found to contain 8.23 mg of rubidium-87 and 0.47 mg of strontium-87.. (a) Calculate the age of the rock if the half-life of the decay of rubidium by emission is 4.71010 y. (b) If some S3887r was initially present in the rock, would the rock be younger, older, or the same age as the age calculated in (a)? Explain your answer.
Technetium-99 is prepared from 98Mo. Molybdenum-SS combines with a neutron to give molybdenum-99, an unstable isotope that emits a particle to yield an excited form of technetium-99, represented as 99Tc*. This excited nucleus relaxes to the ground state, represented as 99Tc, by emitting a ray. The ground state of 99Tc then emits a particle. Write the equations for each of these nuclear reactions.
Write the balanced nuclear equation for the production of the following transuranium elements: (a) berkelium-244, made by the reaction of Am-241 and He-4. (b) fermiurn-254, made by the reaction of Pu-239 with a large number of neutrons. (c) lawrencium-257, made by the reaction of Cf-250 and B-11. (d) dubnium-260, made by the reaction of Cf-249 and N-15
