7.47*13-7.68*12 =  97.11-92.16 = 4.5 Mev approx

1gm of  94Pu-239 is an α-emitter with a half life of 24400 yrs. given 1g sample of this plutonium how many α-particles will it emit per second?

(a) 2.27*10^9

(b) 2.27*10^10

(c) 2.27*10^11

(d) 2.27*10^12

dn/dt = kn

so dn = (0.6932/24400*3.1*107)*(1/239)*6.023*1023*1

a radioactive substance (M= 100g/mol) have t½ of 5 days. if today 0.125mg is left over what was its activity 20 days earlier?

(a) 522.8 Ci

(b) 1.93*10^7 Rd

(c) 1.93*10^13 Bq

(d) all of these

20 day means 4 half lifes so today 0.125mg means 0.125*24 = 2gm earlier 

so activity dn/dt = kn

solve and convert in required units

a uranium mineral contains U-238 and Pb-206 in the ratio 4:1 by weight. Calculate the age of mineral (t½ for U-238 = 4.5 *10^9 years)

(a) 1.45*10^9 yrs

(b) 16.6*10^9 yrs

(c) 16.6*10^10 yrs

U:Pb = 4:1

taking these ratio as mass

we get the initial mass of U = 4+(1*235/208)

and present mass of U = 4

now use the first order equation of radioactivity

for an endothermic rx, higher value of energy of activation will be

(a) less than enthalpy of rx.

(b) 0

(c) more than enthalpy of rx.

(d) equal to enthalpy of rx.

A metalloid is a chemical element  that has properties that are in between or a mixture of those of metals and nonmetals and is consequently difficult to classify unambiguously as either a metal or a nonmetal. There is no standard definition of a metalloid, nor is there agreement as to which elements are appropriately classified as such. Despite this lack of specificity the term remains in use in chemistry literature.The six elements commonly recognised as metalloids are B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Te

 

 A semimetal is a material with a very small overlap between the bottom of the conduction band and the top of the valence band. A semimetal thus has no band gap and a negligible density of states at the fermi level. A metal, by contrast, has an appreciable density of states at the Fermi level because the conduction band is partially filled.
