A sample of radioactive element has a mass of 10 gram at an instant t=0. The approximate mass of this element in the sample after two mean lives is
Options
(a) 2.50 gram
(b) 3.70 gram
(c) 6.30 gram
(d) 1.35 gram
Correct Answer:
1.35 gram
Explanation:
M = M₀ e-λt
Since, t = 2/λ, we get
M = 10 × e-λ × (2/λ) = 10 e⁻² = 1.35 gram
