Number of nuclei is N=7.58∗1021N=7.58*10^{21}N=7.58∗1021
Activity of the sample is R=1μC=3.7×104decays/sR=1 \mu C=3.7×10^{4} decays/sR=1μC=3.7×104decays/s
The disintegration constant is
λ=RN=3.7∗1047.58∗1021=4.88∗10−18/s\lambda=\frac{R}{N}=\frac{3.7*10^{4}}{7.58*10^{21}}=4.88*10^{-18} /sλ=NR=7.58∗10213.7∗104=4.88∗10−18/s
The half life of the sample is
T1/2=ln24.88∗10−18/s=1.42∗1017sT_{1/2}= \frac{ln2}{{4.88*10^{-18}}/s} = 1.42*10^{17} sT1/2=4.88∗10−18/sln2=1.42∗1017s
