Question
A radioactive sample undergoes decay as per the following graph. At time t = 0, the number of undecayed nuclei is N0. Calculate the number of nuclei left after 1 h :-
Options
A.N0/e8
B.N0/e10
C.N0/e12
D.N0/e14
Solution
From graph T1/2 = 3.47 min
N = N0e-
= N0e 
N = N0e-
= N0e Create a free account to view solution
