Answer :

Bombarding sodium-23 with a proton produces nuclide X and a neutron. What is nuclide X?

[tex]^{23}_{11}Na--^{\beta^+}--> ^{23}_{10}Ne + e^{+}[/tex]

answer:  neon
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The isotope P has a half-life of 14.3 days. If a sample originally contained 1.00 g of P, 
how much was left after 43 days?

0 days >>> 1.00g
14,3 days >>> 1.00g :2 = 0,5g
(14.3+14.3) days >>> 0.5g : 2 = 0.25g
(14.3+14.3+14.3) days >>>  0.25g : 2 = 0.125g 

answer: 0.125g
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Identify X in the reaction 
below.
 U +  C →  Cf + X

[tex]^{238}_{92}U ---> ^{251}_{98}Cf+6e^-[/tex]

answer: 6 electrons  (so it's beta
⁻)

A .20 gram sample of C-14 was allowed to decay for 3 half-lives.  What mass 
of the sample will remain?  Carbon-14 has a half life of 5730 
years.  

at the beginning >>> 0.20g
1 half-live >>> 0.20g : 2 = 0.10g
2 half-live >>> 0.10g : 2 = 0.05g
3 half-live >>> 0.05g : 2 = 0.025g

answer: 0.025g
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The isotope Cu has a half-life of 30 s. If a sample originally contained 48 mg of Cu, 
how much time passed before the amount fell to 3 mg?

0 s (at the beginning) >>> 48mg
30s >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 48mg : 2 = 24mg
(30+30)s >>>>>>>>>>> 24mg : 2 = 12mg
(30+30+30)s >>>>>>>> 12mg : 2 = 6mg
(30+30+30+30)s >>>>> 6mg : 2 = 3mg

answer: 30+30+30+30 = 120s
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What radionuclide decays to Fe-56 by beta emission?

[tex]^{56}_{26}Fe--^{\beta^-}-->^{56}_{27}Co + e^-[/tex]

answer: ⁵⁶₂₇Co
