The half life of Iodine-131 is 8.02 days, that means that say if you had 1 gram of 131I after approximately 8 days there would be only 0.5g left. The other half would have become Xenon-131. After 6 half lives (~48 days in your case) you would only have 1.6% of the original amount left.

How long did it take for xenon to decay into cesium?

Most isotopes of Xenon are stable and so do not decay. The shortest lived isotope has a half life of more than 10^16 (10 quadrillion) years.


Does Pepsi cause tooth decay?

All Sodas can over a long period of time. I would say that coke would cause faster decay than pepsi.


How long will it take 24 grams of plutonium -240 to Decay to 20 gram?

The half-life of plutonium-240 is about 6,560 years. If 24 grams decay to 20 grams, it represents a loss of 4 grams of plutonium. The time it would take for 24 grams to decay to 20 grams would depend on the specific decay rate and is typically calculated using exponential decay equations.


Can you replace Volvo S60 2011 headlight lamps with Xenon bulbs?

yes, so long as they are the same type (mine are H7 Xenon)


Why is Xenon lipophilic?

Yes. Xenon is lipophilic and exhibits affinity for cavities in macromolecular interiors. Xenon's lipophilic behavior has been shown from its partition with long-chain hydrocarbons and from its in vitro and in vivo partition with fatty tissue.

How do you create xenon rocket?

To create a xenon rocket, a spacecraft must have an electric propulsion system that ionizes xenon gas and accelerates the ions to generate thrust. This technology is called ion propulsion, and it is used in deep space missions to provide efficient and long-lasting propulsion compared to traditional chemical rockets. Xenon rockets are ideal for long-duration missions due to their high specific impulse.


How long has xenon been around?

More than 10 billion years.


How long it would take for 99.9 percent of Cs to decay if its half-life is 30 years?

It would take approximately 300 years for 99.9% of Cs to decay. This is calculated by dividing the half-life by the natural log of 2, which results in approximately 10 half-lives for 99.9% decay.

How long will it take 36 grams of plutonium 240 to decay to 12 grams?

The decay of plutonium-240 has a half-life of about 656 million years. To go from 36 grams to 12 grams would require two half-lives, so it would take approximately 1.3 billion years for 36 grams of plutonium-240 to decay to 12 grams.
