The half-life of cesium-137 is 30 years. Suppose we have a 180 mg sample. Find the mass that remains after t years. Let y(t) be

Stels [109]

Explanation:

1) Initial mass of the Cesium-137= $N_o$ = 180 mg

Mass of Cesium after time t = N

Formula used :

$N=N_o\times e^{-\lambda t}\\\\\lambda =\frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}$

Half life of the cesium-137 = $t_{1/2}=30 years[p/tex]where,
[tex]N_o$ = initial mass of isotope

N = mass of the parent isotope left after the time, (t)

$t_{\frac{1}{2}}$ = half life of the isotope

$\lambda$ = rate constant

$N=N_o\times e^{-(\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}})\times t}$

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

$N=180mg\times e^{-\frac{0.693}{30 years}\times t}$

Mass that remains after t years.

$N=180 mg\times e^{0.0231 year^{-1}\times t}$

Therefore, the parent isotope remain after one half life will be, 100 grams.

t = 70 years

$N_o=180 mg$

$t_{1/2}= 30 yeras$

$N=180mg\times e^{-\frac{0.693}{30 years}\times 70 years}$

N = 35.73 mg

35.73 mg of cesium-137 will remain after 70 years.

$N_o=180 mg$

$t_{1/2}= 30 yeras$

N = 1 mg

t = ?

$1 mg =180mg\times e^{-\frac{0.693}{30 years}\times t}$

$\frac{-30 year}{0.693}\times \ln \frac{1 mg}{180 mg}=t$

t = 224.80 years ≈ 225 years

After 225 years only 1 mg of cesium-137 will remain.
