If `m g` of a radioactive species (molar mass `M)` has decay constant `lambda` The specis activity of sample at `t = ` is given by:

A

`((m N_(A))/(M)) e ^(- lamda t)`

B

`((m N _(A) lamda )/(M)) e ^(- lamda t)`

C

`((mN_(A))/(Mlamda )) e ^(- lamda t)`

D

`(m)/(lamda ) (1- e ^(-lamda t ))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

activity `= lamda N _(0) e ^(- lamda t)` where `N_(0) = (N_(A)m)/(M)`
