Calculate the half-lifetime t1/2 of a 20 kilogram radioactive
material if on the 50th year, its amount becomes 15 kilogram.
Sketch the instantaneous amount of material up to infinity. using a
differential equation.
What is the half-life (T1/2) of a radioactive element with the
following conditions?
-Initial Activity = 1000 milliCuries
-Final Activity = 400 milliCuries
-Elapsed Time= 20.0 days
Half-life equation for first-order reactions:
t1/2=0.693k
where t1/2 is the half-life in seconds (s), and k
is the rate constant in inverse seconds (s−1).
A. What is the half-life of a first-order reaction with a rate
constant of 5.60×10−4
s−1?
B. What is the rate constant of a first-order reaction that
takes 150 seconds for the reactant concentration to drop to half of
its initial value?
C. A certain first-order reaction has a rate constant of
7.20×10−3 s−1. How long...
The half-life of a reaction, t1/2, is the time required for
one-half of a reactant to be consumed. It is the time during which
the amount of reactant or its concentration decreases to one-half
of its initial value.Determine the half-life for the reaction in
Part B using the integrated rate law, given that the initial
concentration is 1.95 mol⋅L−1 and the rate constant is 0.0019
mol⋅L−1⋅s−1
Cobalt-
60
is radioactive and has a half life of
5.26
years. Calculate the activity of a
8.3mg
sample of cobalt-
60
. Give your answer in becquerels and in curies. Be sure
your answer has the correct number of significant
digits.
The quantity of a radioactive material is often measured by its
activity (measured in curies or millicuries) rather than by its
mass. In a brain scan procedure, a 84.0−kg patient is injected with
19.0 mCi of 99mTc, which decays by emitting γ−ray photons with a
half-life of 6.01 h. Given that the RBE of these photons is 0.98
and exactly two-thirds of the photons are absorbed by the body,
calculate the rem dose received by the patient. Assume all the...

2. If a drug is administered orally, which of the following
would affect the efficiency of its absorption in the
gastrointestinal tract?
a. Dissociation of the drug from its administered form

One kilogram of Refrigerant 134a vapor initially at 2 bar and
20°C fills a rigid vessel. The vapor is cooled until the
temperature becomes -24°C. There is no work during the
process.
Let To = 20°C, po = 0.1 MPa and ignore the
effects of motion and gravity.
2. For the refrigerant, determine the change in exergy, in
kJ.
Note: for part 1: q=-98.086kj please find part two- the change
in exergy in kj
