Answer:

2.48 g

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Original amount (N₀) = 10 g

Time (t) = 1407.6 million years

Amount remaining (N) =?

Next, we shall determine the rate of decay (K) of uranium-235. This can be obtained as follow:

NOTE: Uranium-235 has a half life of 700 million years.

Decay constant (K) =?

Half life (t½) = 700 million years

K = 0.693/t½

K = 0.693/700

K = 9.9×10¯⁴ / year

Therefore, Uranium-235 decay at a rate of 9.9×10¯⁴ / year.

Finally, we shall determine the amount of Uranium-235 remaining after 1407.6 million years as follow:

Original amount (N₀) = 10 g

Time (t) = 1407.6 million years

Decay constant (K) = 9.9×10¯⁴ / year

Amount remaining (N) =?

Log (N₀/N) = kt /2.3

Log (10/N) = (9.9×10¯⁴ × 1407.6) /2.3

Log (10/N) = 0.60588

10/N = antilog (0.60588)

10/N = 4.04

Cross multiply

10 = 4.04 × N

Divide both side by 4.04

N = 10/4.04

N = 2.48 g

Therefore, 2.48 g of uranium-235 is remaining after 1407.6 million years.
