Geologists use the decay of potassium-40 in volcanic rocks to determine their age. Potassium-40 has a half-life of 1.26 109 year

Answer:

$m_{o} \approx 3.247\times 10^{-7}\,g$

Explanation:

The mass of radioactive isotope at a certain time is given by the following expression:

$m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$

Time constant can be calculed in terms of half-life:

$\tau = \frac{t_{1/2}}{\ln 2}$

$\tau = \frac{1.26\times 10^{9}\,yr}{\ln 2}$

$\tau = 1.818\times 10^{9}\,yr$

The initial mass is:

$m_{o} = \frac{2.73\times 10^{-7}\,g}{e^{-\frac{3.15\times 10^{8}\,yr}{1.818\times 10^{9}\,yr} }}$

$m_{o} \approx 3.247\times 10^{-7}\,g$

Iron has a density of 7.86 g/cm3 (1 cm3=1 mL). Calculate the volume (in dL) of a piece of iron having a mass of 3.26 kg . Note t

Mkey [24]

$d=7,86\frac{g}{cm^{3}}=7,86\frac{0,001kg}{0,01dL}=0,786\frac{kg}{dL}\\
m=3,26kg\\\\\\
d=\frac{m}{V} \ \ \ \ \Rightarrow \ \ \ \ V=\frac{m}{d}=\frac{3,26kg}{0,786\frac{kg}{dL}}\approx4,15dL$
