I can't seem to get this started in the right direction. Any help is appreciated.
As part of a treatment program, a patient ingests a radioactive pharmaceutical containing P32,15, which emits beta rays with an of 1.50. The half-life of is 14.28 , and the initial activity of the medication is 1.34 .
Part A
How many electrons are emitted over the period of 7.00 days?
Part B
If the rays have an energy of 705 keV , what is the total amount of energy absorbed by the patient's body in 7.00 ?
Part C
Find the absorbed dosage in rem, assuming the radiation is absorbed by 110 grams of tissue.
