Polonium-210 is a radioactive substance with a half-life of 138 days. If a nuclear facility is handling 245 grams of polonium-210, then how many grams of polonium- 210 will be left in 240 days. Round your answer 4 decimal places and remember to use labels. Your Answer: Answer units Gordon invested $91,000 into a CD compounded quarterly with an annual interest rate of 5.55%. Determine how much money Gordon would have after 5 years. Round your answer to the nearest cent. Provide only a numerical answer (For example, if the final amount came to $5.023.97, then you would input 5023.97).

Potassium (Z = 19) has three primary isotopes: K-39, K-40, and K-41 a. Determine the most likely type of nuclear decay that K-40 undergoes and write the balanced nuclear equation for one of these decays. b. Potassium-argon (K-Ar) dating is commonly used to determine the age of a sample by measuring the amount of Ar-40 present which was produced by the radioactive decay of K-40. Write the balanced nuclear reaction to show how K-40 becomes Ar-40.

QB- An alien visited our planet in year 5305 and found that humans have long gone from this planet after nuclear war. He found that humanity has destroyed itself in a nuclear war. He analysed a certain chunk of concrete and found 2.5g of 226RA and 6.8g of 206Pb. What was the year of the nuclear war? Hint: 226Ra decays to 206Pb in a number of steps with a combined half-life of 1640 years.
