Dr. Goodie apologetically leaves to deal with an emerger Issue, but Mr. Miller still has some concerns. Answer the following to alleviate Mr. Miller concerns:
Dr. Goodie estimates Mr. Miller will need to be infused with approximately 4 grams of 131 over a 3- hour period of time to reach a sufficient therapeutic level of radiation.
1. How many grams of iodine-131 would remain in Mr. Miller’s body after 6.8 half-lives? ( Round your answers to two decimal places)
2. If the half-life of l-131 is 7.6 days, how long would it take for l-131 to go through 3.3 half-lives? (Round your answers to two decimals points)
3. If the half-life of l-131 is 29 days, how many moles of l-131 would be left in Mr. Miller’s body after 35 days if he was infused with 4.4 grams? (Round your answer to four decimal places)
