Which of the following statement is not true for radioactive decay?
- A Decay constant increases with increase in temperature.
- B Amount of radioactive substance remained after three half lives is \(\frac{1}{8}\) th of original amount.
- C Decay constant does not depend upon temperature.
- D Half life is ln 2 times of \(\frac{1}{\text { rate constant }}\).
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Decay constant increases with increase in temperature.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
For radioactive decay, decay constant does not depend upon temperature because for radioactive decay activation energy is zero.
