The half-life of radium- is yr. How many hours will it take for a g sample to decay to the point where g of the isotope remains?
Plutonium- represents a serious nuclear waste hazard. If seven half-lives are required to reach a tolerable level of radioactivity, how long must be stored?
Technetium-99m is a metastable nuclide used in numerous cancer diagnostic and treatment programs. It is prepared just before use because it decays rapidly through y emission:
Use the data below to determine
(a) The half-life of ;
(b) The percentage of the isotope that is lost if it takes 2.0 h to prepare and administer the dose.
Time(h) | y emission (photons / s) |
0 | 5000 |
4 | 3150 |
8 | 2000 |
12 | 1250 |
16 | 788 |
20 | 495 |
