Strontium-90, a radioactive isotope with applications in medicine, has a half-life of approximately 30 years. Out of a 100-gram sample, approximately how much remains after 170 years? 2 grams 8 grams 17 grams 81 grams

There are 2 grams remain

Given

t1/2 = 30 years

t = 170 years

No = 100 g

Required

Remaining sample

Solution

General formulas used in decay:  

Input the value :

"hydrogen bonding is the attraction of h atoms in the water molecule (slight + charge) to o atoms in a neighboring water molecule (slight - charge); it is a weak interatomic force. but it is still strong enough to the water molecules "stick" together."
