Starting with a sample of pure `.^66Cu`, `3/4` of it decays into `Zn` in `15` minutes. The corresponding half-life isA. `15 minutes `B. `10 minutes`C. `7 (1)/(2) minutes `D. `5 minutes` |
Answer» Correct Answer - D `(7)/(8) `of `Cu` decay in `15minutes` `:. `Cu undecay = N = 1 - (7)/(8) = (1)/(8) = ((1)/(2))^(3)` `:. ` no of half lifes `= 3` `n = (I)/(T) or 3 = (15)/(T)` `rArr T = half life period = (15)/(3) = 5 minutes` ` |
