Radioactive decay can be used to determine the age of an object. If you know the number of radioactive nuclei with which an object started, the number of radioactive nuclei currently present, and the half-life of the isotope, you can calculate the time since the object was created. Suppose an object was created with 4.810×109 nuclei of a particular isotope that has a half-life of 1.56×103 yr. At this point in time 9.620×108 nuclei of this particular isotope remain. What...

Which type of nuclear decay is the following radioactive isotope likely to undergo? All known stable isotopes are shown on the graph. The points form what is know as the "belt of stability". If a radioactive isotope is above the belt of stability, think about what type of decay would decrease its N/Z ratio. If an unstable isotope is below the belt of stability, think about what type of decay would increase its N/Z ratio. If a radioactive isotope is...

If a substance is radioactive, this means that the nucleus is unstable and will therefore decay by any number of processes (alpha decay, beta decay, etc.). The decay of radioactive elements follows first-order kinetics. Therefore, the rate of decay can be described by the same integrated rate equations and half-life equations that are used to describe the rate of first-order chemical reactions: lnAtA0=−kt and t1/2=0.693k where A0 is the initial amount or activity, At is the amount or activity at...
