Question
Chapter 17, Problem 104QGW
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The table for the alpha decay of Radon-220 is to be made. The graph for the number of atoms and total time is to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
In the radioactive sample, the time taken by the parent nuclides to decay to half of its initial value is defined as the half-life.
The number of atoms during the alpha decay is counted by dividing the initial amount by 2.
