Chromium-51 is a radioactive isotope used to label red blood cells to identify if they remain intact in the body. it has a half-life of 27.7 days. if 0.25 mg is an approximate dose amount, how much remains after 83.1 days?

Amount of chromium-51 remaining after 83.1 days = 0.031 mg

Explanation:

Radioactive disintegration follows the exponential law which can be mathematically expressed as:

where N(0) = initial amount of the radioactive substance

N(t): radioactive substance left after time t

t1/2 = half life of the radioisotope

In the case of chromium-51:

N(0) = 0.25 mg

t = 83.1 days

t1/2 = 27.7 days

Substituting these values in equation (1) gives:

answer; /// i do believe that the correct answer is (c)nuclear bond

the correct option is c.

isotopes refers to different forms of the same element with the same atomic number but different mass number as a result of difference in their neutron numbers. isotopes have different relative atomic mass but share the same chemical properties.
