A patient ingests 1.58 mg of I-131 (iodine-131), a beta emitter with a half-life of 8.0 days. Assuming that none of the I-131 is eliminated from the person's body in the first 4.0 hours of treatment, what is the exposure (in Ci) during those first four hours? Express with 2 significant figures.Thank you.

Problem 30.53-MC Review I Constants A 95 kg patient swallows a 31 Ci beta emitter whose half-life is 5.0 days and whose RBE is 1.6. The beta rticles are emitted with an average energy of 0.35 MeV, 90% of which is absorbed by the body. You are a health care worker needing to find the patient's dose equivalent after one week. These series of steps will help you find that dose equivalent. In all questions, assume the radioactive nuclei are...
stion 21 85.0mg of iodine-131 is given to a patient. How many mg will remain after 40 days? The half life of 1-131 is 8 days. None of these answers are correct 0.332mg 2.5mg 0.0313mg 2.66mg
A 95 kg patient swallows a 34 ?Ci beta emitter whose half-life is 5.0 days and whose RBE is 1.6. The beta particles are emitted with an average energy of 0.35 MeV, 90% of which is absorbed by the body. You are a health care worker needing to find the patient's dose equivalent after one week. These series of steps will help you find that dose equivalent. In all questions, assume the radioactive nuclei are distributed throughout the patient's body...
1. Iodine-131 is an isotope in the treatment of hyperthyrodisim and has an effective half- life of 7.6 days. If a patjent is given a dose of 10.0 mCi, how much radiation remains after 38 days? 2. Phosphorus-32 is a radisotope used to detect certain types of tumors. P-32 has an effective half-life of 14.1 days. If a patient recieves 6.0 mCi, how much radiatjon remains after 169.2 hours?

At 8:00 A.M., a patient receives a 1.0-μg dose of I-131 to treat thyroid cancer. Part A If the nuclide has a half-life of 8.0 days, what mass of the nuclide remains in the patient at 2:00 P.M. the next day? (Assume no excretion of the nuclide from the body.) Express your answer using two significant figures.
