Question
Chapter 7, Problem 24Q
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Reason for the failure in conversion of lead to precious metals like gold and silver by alchemist of Middle Ages has to be explained. Also the possibility of such conversion in the present time has to be discussed.
Concept Introduction:
In nuclear reaction a nucleus collides with another nucleus or subatomic particles like proton, neutron or electron to give new nuclides that are different from the starting nuclides.
Nuclear reaction is a physical process in which there is a change in identity of an atomic nucleus. Natural radioactive decays, artificial radioactive decays... are considered as nuclear reactions because these processes make changes in the identity of an atomic nucleus.

Technetium-99m is an especially interesting and valuable isotope as it emits a gamma ray with a half life ideally suited for medical tests. It would seem that the decay of technetium should fit the treatment above with the result In(c/c) = -kt.

Graph the fraction (c/c.) on the vertical axis versus the time on the horizontal axis. Also graph In(c/c.) on the vertical axis versus time on the horizontal axis. When half of the original amount of starting material has hours fraction remaining disappeared, c/c = ½ and the equation In(c/c.) = -kt becomes In(0.5) = -kt1/2 where t₁₂ is the half life (the time for half of the material to decay away).
