The half-life of radioisotopic bromine \(- 82\) is \(36\) hours. The fraction which remains after one day is _______ \(\times 10^{-2}\). (Given antilog \(0.2006=1.587\) )

  1. A \(41\)
  2. B \(52\)
  3. C \(63\)
  4. D \(36\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(63\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Half life of bromine \(-82=36\) hours \( \mathrm{t}_{1 / 2}=\frac{0.693}{\mathrm{~K}} \) \( \mathrm{~K}=\frac{0.693}{36}=0.01925 \mathrm{hr}^{-1} \) \(1^{\text {st }}\) order rxn kinetic equation \( t=\frac{2.303}{K} \log \frac{a}{a-x} \)…
