The mass of the atom F919 is 18.99840 amu.. (a) Calculate its binding energy per atom in millions of electron volts. (b) Calculate its binding energy per nucleon.
Many nuclides with atomic numbers greater than 83 decay by processes such as electron emission. Explain the observation that the emissions from these unstable nuclides also normally include particles.
Isotopes such as 26Al (half-life: 7.2105 years) are believed to have been present in our solar system as it Formed, but have since decayed and are now called extinct nuclides. (a) 26Al decays by + emission or electron capture. Write the equations for these two nuclear transformations. (b) The earth was formed about .4.7109 (4.7 billion) years ago. How old was the earth when 99.999999% of the 26Al originally present had decayed?
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.
