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
Answer:
The correct answer is 6 possible states
Explanation:
Answer:
Atoms of each element contain a characteristic number of protons and electrons. The number of protons determines an element's atomic number and is used to distinguish one element from another.
Answer:A
Explanation:
A nuclear reaction is balanced by ensuring that the Masses and charges of te reactants and products are exactly balanced on the left and right hand side of the reaction equation. If there are 60 mass units on the LHS and manganese has only 56 mass units then four mass units are left. If there is no charge on a neutron and there is a charge of 27 on the cobalt, then two charges are left. Four mass units and a charge of +2 corresponds to a helium which is actually an alpha particle.
