The half - life periods of four isotopes are give below : (i) 7.6 years , ii. 4000 years iii. 6000 years , iv. 3.2xx10^(5) years Which of the above isotope is most stable ?

The activity of a nucleus is inversely proportional to its half of average life. Thus, shorter the half life of an element, greater is its radioactivity, i.e., greater the number of atomsd disintegrating per second. The relation between half life and average life is t_(1//2) = (0.693)/(lambda) = tau xx 0.693 or tau = 1.44 t_(1//2) The half-life periods of four isotopes are given 1 = 6.7 years, II = 8000 years, III = 5760 years, IV = 2.35 xx 10^(5) years. Which of these is most stable?

Natural uranium is a mixture of three isotopes _92^234U , _92^234U , _92^235U and _92^238U with mass percentage 0.01%, 0.71% and 99.28% respectively. The half-life of three isotopes are 2.5xx10^5yr , 7.1xx10^8yr and 4.5xx10^9yr respectively. Determine the share of radioactivity of each isotope into the total activity of the natural uranium.
