The half-life of `_92^238U` against alpha decay is `4.5xx10^9` year. How much disintegration per second occurs in 1 g of `_92^238U`?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C, D

`R=lambdaN=((1n2)/(t_(1//2)))N`
`=(0.693)/(4.5xx10^9xx365xx24xx3600)((1)/(238))(6.02xx10^23)`
`=1.23xx10^4dps`
