You want to find out how many atoms of the isotope 65Cu are in a small sample of material. You bombard the sample with neutrons to ensure that on the order of 1% of these copper nuclei absorb a neutron. After activation, you turn off the neutron flux and then use a highly efficient detector to monitor the gamma radiation that comes out of the sample. Assume half of the 66Cu nuclei emit a 1.04-MeV gamma ray in their decay. (The other half of the activated nuclei decay directly to the ground state of 66Ni.) If after 10 min (two half-lives) you have detected 1.00 3 104 MeV of photon energy at 1.04 MeV, (a) approximately how many 65Cu atoms are in the sample? (b) Assume the sample contains natural copper.
