How Do You Calculate Radionuclide Activity?
How Do You Calculate Radionuclide Activity? Activity = λN. = (0.693/8 days) x (1/86,400 sec/day) x (3 x 1017 atoms) = 3 x 1011 atoms/sec I-131. = 3 x 1011 dps I-131. What is the activity of a radionuclide? Activity is a quantity (for which the SI unit is the becquerel) related to radioactivity. The
