If you start with 16 million nuclei of a radioisotope with a half life of 10 minutes, how many will be left after 110 minutes?
N = Noe-t
T1/2 = ln 2/
= ln 2/T1/2 = ln 2 /10 = 0.0693147
N = 16*e-0.0693147*110 = 0.0078125 millions

a certain radioisotope has a half life if 6 hrs. if you start out with 50g of the isotope, how much of it is left after 2 days?
(9 points) a. The half-life of a radioisotope is 2.4 minutes. If you had 100 grams at the beginning, how many grams would be left after 7.2 minutes has elapsed?
If you have 40 grams of a radioisotope with a half life of 10 hours, and you keep it in your lab for 30 hours, how much of the isotope will be left?
The half-lives of different radioisotopes are given in the table. Half-life (min) Radioisotope argon-44 12 lead-196 37 22 potassium 44 indium-117 43 If the initial amount of potassium-44 is 8.8 g, how much potassium-44 is left in the body after 44 min? mass: g TOOLS x10 What is the half-life of an isotope that decays to 12.5% of its original activity in 70.6 h? half-life: h The half-lives of different radioisotopes are given in the table. Half-life (min) 12 Radioisotope...
Nuclear imaging tracers have a radioactive half life that depends on the radioisotope. For example, the half-life of 18F is 110 minutes. However, the tracer is also eliminated from the body with a biological half life that depends on the tracer molecule. For example, a cardiac imaging agent called Cardiolite is eliminated from the body with a half life of 6 hours. The effective half life of a nuclear imaging agent is calculated as 1/teff 1/trad 1/tbio, where teff is...
Suppose you start with a sample with 2.900×108 nuclei of a particular isotope. This isotope has a half-life of 374 s. a) What is the decay constant for this particular isotope? b) How many nuclei remain after 797 s? c) What is the activity of the sample at the beginning of the experiment?
The half-lives of different radioisotopes are given in the table. Radioisotope Half-life (min) argon-44: 12min, lead-196: 37min, potassium-44: 22min, indium-117: 43min If the initial amount of indium-117 is 7.2 g, how much indium-117 is left in the body after 86 min?
9. Technetium-99m is an ideal radioisotope for scanning organs, because it has a half-life of 6.0 hr and is a pure gamma emitter. Suppose that 80.0 mg were prepared in the technetium generator this morning. How many milligrams would remain after: a. one half-Life b. two half-lives c. 18 hrs. d. 24 hrs.
Problem 11: Beryllium-7 has a half-life of 53.1 days. What fraction of the nuclei in a beryllium sample will remain after 225 days? [If it will help, you can assume that 109 nuclei are present at the start] (6)
5 of 15 A radioisotope tracer has a half-life of 2 minutes. If a level of <1% is considered safe, when would the soonest a sample injected with the tracer be safe to handle? about 2 minutes about 14 minutes about 99 minutes about 100 minutes 6 of 15 A reaction mechanism consisting of three steps, two fast and one slow, cannot be dependent on the slow step second order first order zero order
