Questions
Count rate of a radioactive substance is 400 per minute. After some time the count rate is 123 per minute. If half life of the element is 2 hours, then number of nuclei decayed in this interval is
detailed solution
Correct option is D
R1=λN1 and R2=λN2∴ λN1−λN2=R1−R2⇒ln2TN1−N2=R1−R2⇒N1−N2=TR1−R2ln2=2×60×400−1230.693⇒N1−N2=47,965Talk to our academic expert!
