464 g radioisotope was present when the sample was put in storage
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Sample waste of Co-60 = 14.5 g
26.5 years in storage
Required
Initial sample
Solution
General formulas used in decay:
t = duration of decay
t 1/2 = half-life
N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms
Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time
Half-life of Co-60 = 5.3 years
Input the value :
While metallic bonds have the strong electrostatic force of attractions between the cation or atoms and the delocalized electrons in the geometrical arrangement of the two metals. ... Metallic bonds are malleable and ductile, while covalent bonds and ionic bonds non-malleable and non-ductile.
<span>Tums are great antiacid tablets for heartburn and indigestion. Calcium carbonate is a great chemical to treat these conditions. If it were not for calcium carbonate, then many people would have heartburn for years until they eventually died from the condition unfortunately.</span>
