Half-life of a radioactive disintegratio...

Half`-`life of a radioactive disintegration `(A rarr B)` having rate constant `231s^(-1)` is a)`3.0 xx 10^(-2)s` b)`3.0 xx 10^(-2)s` c)`3.3xx10^(-2)s` d)`3.3xx10^(-3)s`

A

`3.0 xx 10^(-2)` s

B

`3.0 xx 10^(-3)` s

C

`3.3 xx 10^(-2)` s

D

`3.3xx 10^(-3)` s

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`t_(1//2) = (0.693)/(lambda) = (0.693)/(231 s^(-1)) = 3.0 xx 10^(-3) s `
