Solution
The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.
Usually, radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.
Based on Table N(attached), the half-life for ⁴²K is 12.4 hours, which means half of a sample of ⁴²K will decay in 12.4 hours
For three half-life periods :
Answer: Decreasing the temperature inside the container will decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container.
Explanation:
According to Gay-Lussac's Law : 'The pressure of the gas increases with increase in temperature of the gas when volume of the gas is kept constant'.
At constant volume, pressure of the gas will decrease on decreasing the temperature or vice versa.
Decreasing the temperature inside the container will decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container.
