A 5.0 mL sample of cobalt-60 used in cancer therapy contains 2.00 mCi. How many becquerels are present? (Hint: notice that you have 2 milliCuries not Curies)
Homework Answers
conversion to be used:
1 Ci = 3.7*10^10 Bq
we have:
2.00 mCi = 2.00*10^-3 Ci
= 2.00*10^-3 * 3.7*10^10 Bq
= 7.40*10^7 Bq
Answer: 7.40*10^7 Bq
