A sulphate salt of the group 2 element of the periodic table is a white, soft substance, which can be molded into different shapes by making its dough. When this compound is left in open for some time, it becomes a solid mass and cannot be used for molding purposes. Identify the sulphate salt and why does the show such a behaviour? give one reaciton involved.

Radioactive disintegration is a first order reaction and its rate depends only upon the nature of nucleus and does not depend upon external factors like temperature and pressure. The rate of radioactive disintegration (Activity) is represented as -(dN)/(dt)=lambdaN Where lambda= decay constant, N= number of nuclei at time t, N_(0) =intial no. of nuclei. The above equation after integration can be represented as lambda=(2.303)/(t)log((N_(0))/(N)) Calculate the half-life period of a radioactive element which remains only 1//16 of its original amount in 4740 years: a) 1185 years b) 2370 years c) 52.5 years d) none of these
