1. Naturally occurring boron consists of 80.22% 11B (nuclidic
mass = 11.009) and 19.78% another isotope. To account for
the atomic mass, 10.810, what must be the nuclidic mass of
the other isotope?
The barium isotope 133Ba has a half-life of 10.5 years. A sample begins with 1.0 × 1010 133Ba atoms. How many are left after (a) 2 years, (b) 20 years, and (c) 200 years?
20.0 hours after being ingested 74.5 % of the original radioactive atoms have decayed or been eliminated. If the biological half-life is
known to be 35.0 hours, what is the physical half-life of this isotope? State the time in hours to 1 decimal places but do NOT include
units in your answer.
