2396
A radioactive sample of an element is 19.2 gm. If half life of the element is 5.8 days, then after 29 days how much quantity of the element remains undecayed?
A. 0.2 gm
B. 1.2 gm
C. 0.6 gm
D. 4.2 gm
Answer & Solution
Discuss

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
29 days is 5 half-lives (29/5.8 = 5); remaining amount = 19.2 / 2^5 = 19.2/32 = 0.6 g.
2397
The capture of neutron by a proton results in the formation of
A. triton and X-rays
B. triton and β-particle
C. deuteron and γ-rays
D. deuteron and α-particle
Answer & Solution
Discuss

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
A proton capturing a neutron forms a deuteron and emits a γ-ray: p + n → D + γ.
2398
