Find the energy released when 21182Pb undergoes β− decay to become 21183Bi. Be sure to take into account the mass of the electrons associated with the neutral atoms. [E= ___MeV]
yttrium-90 is found in an insoluble carbonate mineral sample as trace impurity. If it formed from beta decay, what was the formula of the carbonate that it came from? Write a balanced nuclear equation with A Z notation to find it.
The isotope 176Lu undergoes β- decay to 176Hf with a long half-life. From a plot of 176Hf/177Hf (y-axis) versus 176Lu/177Hf (x-axis) for a suite of cogenetic (=related) meteorites, Patchett & Tatsumoto (1980) obtained a 10-point isochrons with a slope of 0.0934 and an initial 176Hf/177Hf ratio of 0.27973. The age of the meteorites is known to be 4550 Ma from independent Pb-Pb dating. Calculate the decay constant (λ) and half-life (t1/2) of 176Lu decay
