To solve the problem of how many atoms of a radioactive isotope \( _{Z}X^{A} \) will decay during the 11th day, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Initial Conditions We start with \( 0.1 \) gram-atom of the isotope. Since \( 1 \) gram-atom corresponds to \( 1 \) mole, \( 0.1 \) gram-atom means we have \( 0.1 \) moles of the isotope. ### Step 2: Calculate the Number of Atoms Initially Using Avogadro's number (\( 6.022 \times 10^{23} \) atoms/mole), we can calculate the initial number of atoms: \[ ...
