A certain nuclide has a half-life period of 30 minutes. If a sample containing 600 atoms is allowed to decay for 90 minutes, how many atoms will remain.

A

200 atoms

B

450 atoms

C

75 atoms

D

500 atoms

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`n = (90)/(30) = 3 implies N = (600)/(2^3) = 75 ` atoms
