Half- life = 3.83 days
31 days/3.83 days = 8.093 half-life
Now we know that
After 1 half-life fraction of amount left = 1/2
After 8.093 half-life fraction left = (1/2)^8.093
atoms left = 3.0*10^7*(1/2)^8.093 = 109871.613 atoms = 1.09*10^5 atoms
Given: element: 3.0 times 10 7 th atoms of Radon, Rn, whose 1/2 life is 3.83...
Radon-222 (222 86 Rn) is a radioactive gas that is often found in homes as a byproduct of natural radiation in the ground. It has a mass of 222.017578u and a half-life of 3.8235 days. You are conducting an experiment on the effects of Radon on bacteria. You begin the experiment at 8:00 am on Monday when you introduce 4.00 µg of Radon-222. Later in the week you are concerned that the activity is too low for your experiment. How...
