State the law of radioactive decay.
Plot a graph showing the number (N) of undecayed
nuclei as a function of time (t) for a given radioactive sample having half
life T1/2.
Depict in the plot the number of undecayed
nuclei at (i) t = 3 T1/2 and (ii) t = 5 T1/2.

Expert Answer
According to radioactive decay law the rate of disintegration of a radioactive substance at an instant is directly proportional to the number of nuclei in the Radioactive substance at that time i.e.
N = , Where symbols have their usual meanings.
From graph:
No. of un-decayed nuclei at t = 3T1/2 is No/8
No. of un-decayed nuclei at t = 5T1/2 is No/32
