Answer:
16.6 mg
Explanation:
Step 1: Calculate the rate constant (k) for Iodine-131 decay
We know the half-life is t1/2 = 8.04 day. We can calculate the rate constant using the following expression.
k = ln2 / t1/2 = ln2 / 8.04 day = 0.0862 day⁻¹
Step 2: Calculate the mass of iodine after 8.52 days
Iodine-131 decays following first-order kinetics. Given the initial mass (I₀ = 34.7 mg) and the time elapsed (t = 8.52 day), we can calculate the mass of iodine-131 using the following expression.
ln I = ln I₀ - k × t
ln I = ln 34.7 - 0.0862 day⁻¹ × 8.52 day
I = 16.6 mg
Answer:
Moles=2.04×10^(-6)
Explanation:
No. Of moles=no. Of particles/ Avogadro's no
(Where no. Of particles may be atoms molecules or compounds)
Moles=1.23×10^18/6.022×10^23
Moles=0.204×10^(-5)
Moles=2.04×10^(-6)
