Radioactive bismuth, Bi-210 (half-life of 5.0 days), decays to polonium, Po-210. Radioactive Po-210 (halflife of 138 days) decays to stable lead, Pb-206.      

a) Draw the decay scheme for Bi-210 to Po-210.  

b) Draw the decay scheme for Po-210 to Pb-206.  

c) If you start with 5.0 X 10-3 Ci of pure Bi-210, calculate the activity of Bi-210 and Po-210 after 30 days.
