Detailed Solution

N = {N_0}{e^{ - \lambda t}} \Rightarrow \left| {\frac{{dN}}{{dt}}} \right| = {N_0}\lambda {e^{ - \lambda t}}

Initially\,\,at\,\,t = 0,{\left| {\frac{{dN}}{{dt}}} \right|_{t = 0}} = {N_0}\lambda

where N0 = Initial number of undecayed atoms

= \frac{{Mass\,of\,the\,sample}}{{Mass\,of\,a\,\sin gle\,atom\,of\,X}} = \frac{M}{{A/{N_A}}} = \frac{{M{N_A}}}{A}

\therefore {\left| {\frac{{dN}}{{dt}}} \right|_{t = 0}} = \frac{{M{N_A}\lambda }}{A} = \frac{{0.693\,M{N_A}}}{{AT}}
