  • question_answer
    Radium has atomic weight 226 and a half-life of 1600 years. The number of disintegrations produced per second from \[1gm\] are        [BHU 1990]

    A)                 \[4.8\times {{10}^{10}}\]             

    B)                 \[9.2\times {{10}^{6}}\]

    C)                 \[3.7\times {{10}^{10}}\]

    D)                 Zero

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

               \[r=\frac{0.693}{{{t}_{1/2}}}\times {{N}_{o}}\]                    \[=\frac{0.693}{1600\times 365\times 24\times 60\times 60}\times \frac{6.023\times {{10}^{23}}}{226}\]                                 = \[3.7\times {{10}^{10}}dps\].
