1. Friday Sept 19 Objective: Estimate the yearly radiation exposure of various people of different backgrounds. Checkpoint: – What is the half-life of 99 Tc if a 500 gram sample decays to 62.5 grams in 333 years? – Fill in the missing particle. What type of decay is this? Homework: – Half life and Nuclear Decay worksheet due Monday – Source B (Health Effects of Radiation) due Wed/Thurs.

2. AmountTime 500 g 250 g 125 g 62.5 g 333 years Half-life = 111 years / 3

3. Tc 97 e 0 Mo 97 Fill in the missing particle. What type of decay is this? 43 42 Electron Capture
