time= 5.26 years
= 5.26*3.154*10^7 seconds
= 1.659*10^8 seconds
Given:
Half life = 1.659*10^8 s
use relation between rate constant and half life of 1st order reaction
k = (ln 2) / k
= 0.693/(half life)
= 0.693/(1.659*10^8)
= 4.177*10^-9 s-1
Molar mass of Co = 58.93 g/mol
mass(Co)= 4.5 mg
= 0.0045 g
use:
number of mol of Co,
n = mass of Co/molar mass of Co
=(4.5*10^-3 g)/(58.93 g/mol)
= 7.636*10^-5 mol
use:
number of nuclei = number of moles * Avogadro’s number
= 7.636*10^-5 * 6.022*10^23 nuclei
= 4.599*10^19 nuclei
Activity,
A = k*N
k is decay constant
N is number of Nuclei
now use:
A = k*N
= 4.177*10^-9s-1 * 4.599*10^19 nuclei
= 1.921*10^11decay/s
= 1.921*10^11Bq
= 1.921*10^11/3.7*10^10 Curie
= 5.192 Curie
