The specific isotopes used depends on the particular organ or body system being studied (for example, Xe-133 is used to image lung function and blood flow.) Technetium-99m is a common radioactive isotope using for a variety of medical applications. It is produced from the decay of Molybdenum-99 and has a half-life of 6.01 hours. What are some of the applications of Tc-99m? While harder to access, another radioactive isotope of technetium, Tc-93, has a half-life of 2.73 hours. If it were easier to harvest, would this be a good substitute for Tc-99m? (remember to explain why for full credit) While Tc-99m has a half-life of 6.01 hours, its decay product has a half-life of 213,000 years. While the medical community considers it to be reasonably safe, within the limits of testing, does this make sense considering both chemical and biological principles?

Assuming that you start with 964 mg of the isotope element sample, after 39.4 hours of decay, you find that there is 275 mg of the sample remaining.

Be sure your answer has a unit symbol and the correct number of significant digits. 5arrow_forwardThe energy released from fission is about 200 MeV per fission event or 3.2-10-11 J per 235U nucleus. The fission of 1 g of 235U generates about 1 MW of thermal power; thus, a reactor that contains 1 kg of 235U fuel generates about 1 GW (109 W). If the reactor core is immersed in a heat bath containing 8.7.105 liters of water (12 m x 6 m x 12 m) initially at 25°C, how long will it take for the water to begin to boil off? Assume that the heat capacity of water is constant and that there is no heat lost from the reactor coolant to the surroundings.arrow_forward
