    The half-life of 82 35Br is 1.471 days. This isotope decays by the emission of a beta particle. a Gaseous HBr is made with Br-82. When the bromine isotope decays, the HBr produces H2 and the bromine decay product. Write a balanced equation for the decay of Br-82. Now, write a balanced equation for the decomposition of H82Br. b If a pure sample of 0.0150 mol of HBr made entirely with Br-82 is placed in an evacuated 1.00-L flask, how...

    Q#2: What is the half-life of technetium-99m in minutes? Hours? Technetium (chemical symbol Tc) is a silver-gray, radioactive metal. It occurs naturally in very small amounts in the earth's crust, but is primarily man- made. Technetium-99 is produced during nuclear reactor operation, and is a byproduct of nuclear weapons explosions. Technetium-99 can be found as a component of nuclear waste. Technetium-99m is a short-lived form of Tc-99 that is used as a medical diagnostic tool. As this isotope decays, it...
