n` alpha`-particles per second are being emitted by N atoms of a radioactive element. The half-life of element will be :

A

`((n)/(N))s`

B

`((CN)/(n))s`

C

`(0.693 N)/(n) s`

D

`(0.693n)/(N)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Rate of energy `= lambdaN, " "n =((0.693)/(t_(1//2)))N, " "t_(1//2) = ((0.693)/(n))`
