The isotope lodine-131 is a radioactive isotope used in industrial and medical applications. It is prepared just before use because it decays rapidly through beta emission. Use the data in the table below to answer the following questions (a) Write the reaction equation. (Note m indicates an excited state of the isotope, which is generally denoted with an asterisks after the symbol, such as X*) (b) What is the rate constant for the decay? Show how you obtained this rate...

A radioactive isotope of phosphorus, 32P, is used in internal radiotherapy to treat patients with cancers and other diseases of the bone marrow. 32P has a half-life of 14.28 days and a atomic mass of 32P is 31.973 u. Via β decay, it emits an electron with an energy of 705 KeV and a RBE of 15.5 . As part of a treatment program, a patient ingests a radioactive pharmaceutical containing 32P which has an initial activity of 1.33 MBq....
