Explanation:
Let A₀ = the original amount of ⁵⁵Co .
The amount remaining after one half-life is ½A₀.
After two half-lives, the amount remaining is ½ ×½A₀ = (½)²A₀.
After three half-lives, the amount remaining is ½ ×(½)²A₀ = (½)³A₀.
The general formula for the amount remaining is:
A =A₀(½)ⁿ
where n is the number of half-lives
n = t/t_½
Data:
A = 1.90 ng
t = 45 h
t_½ = 18.0 h
Calculation:
(a) Calculate n
n = 45/18.0 = 2.5
(b) Calculate A
1.90 = A₀ × (½)^2.5
1.90 = A₀ × 0.178
A₀ = 1.90/0.178 = 10.7 ng
The original mass of ⁵⁵Co was .
