    The radium and uranium atoms in a sample of uranium mineral are in the ratio of \[1:2.8\times {{10}^{6}}\] If half-life period of radium is \[1620\] year, the half-life period of uranium will be:

    A)  \[4.53\times {{10}^{9}}year\]

    B)  \[45.3\times {{10}^{9}}year\]

    C)  \[4.53\times {{10}^{10}}year\]

    D)  \[45.3\times {{10}^{10}}year\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Sol.         \[\frac{{{N}_{A}}}{{{N}_{B}}}=\frac{{{[{{t}_{1/2}}]}_{A}}}{{{[{{t}_{1/2}}]}_{B}}}\] or            \[\frac{1}{2.8\times {{10}^{6}}}=\frac{1620}{{{[{{t}_{1/2}}]}_{B}}}\] or            \[{{[{{t}_{1/2}}]}_{B}}=1620\times 2.8\times {{10}^{6}}\]                 \[=4.536\times {{10}^{9}}year\]
