A small bottle contains powered beryllium Be & gaseous radon which is used as a source of alpha -particles. Netrons are produced when alpha- particles of the radon react with beryllium. The yield of this reaction is (1//4000) i.e. only one alpha -particle out of induced the reaction. Find the amount of radon (Rn^(222)) originally introduced into the source, if it prouduces 1.2 xx 10^(6) neutrons per second after 7.6 days. [ T_(1//2) of R_(n) = 3.8 days]
