Three specimens A, B, C of same radioactive element has activities 1 microcurie, 1 rutherford and 1 becquerel respectively. Which specimen has maximum mass?

A

A

B

B

C

C

D

all have equal masses

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Activity is proportional to mass. Activity of specimen B is maximum. Thus, mass of specimen B is also maximum.
