A radioactive material, with half-life of six months, has 100 thousand unstable nuclei.
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Given that;

N/No = (1/2)^t/t1/2

Where;

No = amount of radioactive isotope originally present

N = A mount of radioactive isotope present at time t

t = time taken

t1/2 = half life

N/1000=(1/2)^3/6

N/1000=(1/2)^0.5

N = (1/2)^0.5 * 1000

N= 707 unstable nuclei

Since the value of the initial activity of the radioactive material was not given, the activity of the radioactive material after three months is given by;

Decay constant = 0.693/t1/2 = 0.693/6 months = 0.1155 month^-1

Hence;

A=Aoe^-kt

Where;

A = Activity after a time t

Ao = initial activity

k = decay constant

t = time taken

A = Aoe^-3 *0.1155

A=Aoe^-0.3465
