A moon rock collected by the Apollo mission is estimated to be 3.80 billion years old by uranium/lead dating. Assuming that the rock did not contain any lead when it was formed, what is the current mass of 206 Pb in the rock, given that it currently contains 1.180 g of 238 u? The half-life of 238U is 4.47×109 years.

- Scelta multiplaCarbon-14, which is present in all living tissue, radioactively decays via a first-order process. A one-gram sample of wood taken from a living tree gives a rate for carbon-14 decay of 13.6 counts per minute (CPM). If the half-life for carbon-14 is 5720 years, calculate the time it would take for the count rate to decrease to 6.8 CPM.983views
