Uranium (`""_(92)U""^(238)`) decayed to `""_(82)Pb""^(206)`. The process is `""_(92)U""^(238)underset(xalpha,ybeta)to.""_(82)Pb""^(206)` `t""_(1//2)of U""^(238)=4.5xx10""^(9)` years A sample of rock from South America contains equal number of atoms of `U""^(238)` and `Pb""^(""^(206)`. The age of the rock will beA. `4.5xx10""^(9)years`B. ?C. `13.5xx10""^(9)years`D. `2.25xx10""^(9)years` |
Answer» Correct Answer - a `t=2.303/0.693t""_(1//2)log.(1+(pb""^(206))/U""^(238))` |
