Half-Life HALF-LIFE is the time that it takes for 1/2 a sample to decompose. The rate of a nuclear transformation depends only on the “reactant” concentration.

Half-Life HALF-LIFE is the time that it takes for 1/2 a sample to decompose. The rate of a nuclear transformation depends only on the “reactant” concentration.

Half-Life Decay of 20.0 mg of 15O. What remains after 3 half-lives? After 5 half-lives?

Kinetics of Radioactive Decay For each duration (half-life), one half of the substance decomposes. For example: Ra-234 has a half-life of 3.6 days If you start with 50 grams of Ra-234 After 3.6 days > 25 grams After 7.2 days > 12.5 grams After 10.8 days > 6.25 grams

Half-Life of Radioisotopes Half–life is the time required for one-half of any given quantity of isotope to decay

Learning Check! The half life of I-123 is 13 hr. How much of a 64 mg sample of I-123 is left after 39 hours?

Learning Check! The half life of I-123 is 13 hr. Only 4 mg are present from a sample that had originally contained 128 mg sample of I-123. How old is the sample?

How Old is Oetzi, the Iceman? Oetzi the Iceman was discovered on the border between Italy and Austria in 1991, in the Otztal Alps, partially submerged in a melting glacier. It’s estimated that he is from the Neolithic age, some 5300 years ago.
