How old is a bottle of wine if the tritium activity is 25 counts/hr and new wine has an activity 200 counts/hr The half life if tritium is 12.3 years.?
I don’t understand the question
Tritium has a half life of 12.3 years if 118mg escapes what percent of the spill will remian radioactive in 61.5 years?
3.13% will be radioactive at that point.
What kind of radioactive elements is used for dating an object?
One with a half-life close to the age of the object
The radioactive decay constant in days-1 if the radioisotope has a half life of 52 days?
Rate constant (zero order) k = [ln(2)] / t0.5 = 0.693 / 52(day) = 0.013 day-1 (or 0.013 per day)
What element is used in nuclear fusion and in what forms?
The element is hydrogen. The easiest reaction to produce on earth (though still very difficult) is between deuterium and tritium. Deuterium is hydrogen with one proton and one neutron, tritium has one proton and two neutrons. Deuterium (heavy water) can be separated from ordinary water whilst tritium has to be made from lithium in a nuclear reactor, and it is radioactive with a half life of 12 years so it does not occur in nature.
What is the half life tritium?
The half-life of tritium is 12.32 years (12 years 3 months and 26-ish days).
A first order reaction is found to have a rate constant t k equals .0000739 find the half life of this reaction?
Since the reaction is first-order, the half-life is constant and equals ln(2)/k, and the units of k are s-1. In this case, the half-life is ln(2)/(.0000739 s-1) = 9379.529 seconds.
What has the author C R Ruby written?
C. R. Ruby has written: 'Tritium half-life' -- subject(s): Half-life (Nuclear physics), Tritium
How much of 8-gram sample of Hydrogen-3 would still be present after 12.3 years if the half life of a H-3 is 12.3 years?
If 12.3 years is the half-life of Tritium (H-3), then @ 12.3 years only half of the tritium should remain or 4 grams.
How many days will it take an amount of tritium to fall to a quarter?
The half life of Tritium is 12.32 years. it would therefore take 24.64 years for the amount to fall to a quarter of the original.
How old is a bottle of wine if the tritium activity is 25 counts/hr and new wine has an activity 200 counts/hr The half life if tritium is 12.3 years.?
I don’t understand the question
Tritium, an isotope of hydrogen with one proton and two neutrons in its nucleus, has a half-life of 12.3 years If 67.2 mg of tritium escapes from a nuclear power plant in the course of an accident, w?
1.56
What is the half life of hydrogen 3?
The half life of hydrogen 3 is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. ... While tritium has several difference experimentally determined values of its half-life.
Tritium an isotope of hydrogen with one proton and two neutrons in its nucleus has a half-life of 12.3 years If 52.5 mg of tritium escapes from a nuclear power plant in the course of an accident?
6.25% will remain radioactive.
Do all elements have half life's?
Yes. From a technical point of view, all elements have isotopes (nuclides) that are radioactive and therefore have half-lives. But the majority of these are artificial - man made, and do not occur in nature on Earth. Even hydrogen has nuclides of deuterium and tritium, deuterium is stable and natural, and tritium has a half life of 12.33 years. Having said that, there are a number of nuclides that are stable and occur naturally.
Why half life of first order reaction does not depend upon the concentration?
half life of a chemical reaction is the time which is required and it does not depend upon concentration of reactantuired to convert hlaf of reactant into product and it depend upon the nature of reaction and condition of r
Tritium an isotope of hydrogen with one proton and two neutrons in its nucleus has a half-life of 12.3 years?
12.26 years is closer.
