The half-life for beta decay of strontium-90 is 28.8 years. a milk sample is found to contain 10.3 ppm strontium-90. how many ye
ryzh [129]

Answer : The correct answer is 96.68 yrs

Radioactivity Decay :

it is a process in which a nucleus of unstable atom emit energy in form of radiations like alpha particle , beta particle etc .

Radioactive decay follows first order kinetics , so its rate , rate constant , amount o isotopes can be calculated using first order equations .

The first order equation for radioactive decay can be expressed as :

ln \frac{N}{N_0}  = - k*t ----------- equation (1)

Where : N = amount of radioisotope after time "t"

N₀ = Initial amount of radioisotope

k = decay constant and t = time

Following steps can be used to find time :

1) To find deacy constant :

Decay constant can be calculated using half life . Decay constant and half life can be related as :

T _\frac{1}{2} = \frac{ln2}{k} ---------equation (2)

Given : Half life of Strontium -90 = 28.8 years

Plugging value of T_\frac{1}{2} in above formula (equation 2) :

28.8 yrs = \frac{ln 2}{ k }

Multiply both side by k

28.8 yrs * k = \frac{ln 2 }{k} * k

Dividing both side by 28.8 yrs

\frac{28.8 yrs * k}{28.8 yrs} = \frac{ln 2}{28.8 yrs}

(ln 2 = 0.693 )

k = 0.0241 yrs⁻¹

Step 2 : To find time :

Given : N₀ = 10.3 ppm N = 1.0 ppm k = 0.0241 yrs⁻¹

Plugging these value in equation (1) as :

ln (\frac{1.0 ppm}{10.3 ppm} ) = - 0.0241 yrs^-^1 * t

ln (0.0971 ) = -0.0241 yrs ^-^1 * t

(ln 0.0971 = - 2.33 )

Dividing both side by - 0.0241 yrs⁻¹

\frac{-2.33}{-0.0241 yrs^-^1} = \frac{-0.0241 yrs^-^1 * t}{-0.0241 yrs^-^1}

t = 96.68 yrs

Hence the concentration of Strontium-90 will drop from 10.3 ppm to 1.0 ppm is 96.68 yrs

Hello.

The answer is:  A. keep a cork in the test tube so the solution cannot spill out

B and C both could be very deadly and it shouldnt be D because if u have an open flame you shouldnt open it even if its not towards anyone.

Why is sound able to travel faster through a solid than a gas?
noname [10]

Answer:

Sound travels more quickly through solids than through liquids and gases because the molecules of a solid are closer together and, therefore, can transmit the vibrations (energy) faster.
