If a sample of radioactive materiel contains 17 daughter nuclide what percent of parent nuclide is present in the sample?
if all the daughters have the same parents the logical answer is 2 parents making it appproximately 11.765% Or if the parents were not present in the sample O%
What is the amount of time it takes for half of a radioactive sample to decay?
its called the half-life and it is different for each nuclide.
What does the half life of a radioisotope correspond to?
The length of time required for half of a sample of radioactive material to decay
Length of time required for half of the radioactive atoms in a sample to decay is its?
This is its half-life.
What is the process by which an element slowly decays over time?
It is through radioactive decay that a quantity of an unstable element will decay over time. A material that is unstable will undergo this process, and the sample is said to be radioactive.
The time required for half of a sample of a radioactive isotope to break down by radioactive decay to form a daughter isotope.?
its called Half-Time...
What is the required for half a sample of radioactive nuclei to decay called?
not sure you're asking exactly but I think the answer your looking for is radioactive half-life
How does the length of the half-life of the element correspond to the radioactivity of the element?
The length of time required for half of a sample of radioactive material to decay
What is the amount of time that is required for half of the radioactive atoms in a sample to decay?
It's called the half-life.
What is the importance of knowing the nucleus half life?
The nuclide half-life tells you what the nuclide is, and if the the decay rate is inconsistet, it can help tell what mix of nulides are presetn in the sample
Is it true that The length of time required for half of the radioactive atoms in a sample to decay is its period?
It's period of half of decay.
A sample contains 1200 radioactive atoms of a particular nuclide After an interval of two half-lives how many atoms have disintegrated?
After two half life it must be 1200 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 300 atoms.
