24 Laboratory Investigation (continued)
Analysis and Conclusions
1. Does this model of beta decay correctly represent the rate of decay of a radioactive substance?
Explain,
2. Do you think that after more half-lives you would eventually have no carbon-14 nucle
remaining? Does your answer suggest why scientists use half-life to describe radioactive
decay? Explain.
Radioactive carbon-14 has a half-life of 5730 years. Suppose a piece of wood has a decay rate
of 15 disintegrations per minute. How many years would it take for the rate to decrease to 4
disintegrations per minute?
4. On Your Own Extend your data table and graph by repeating step 3 several more times t
collect data for additional half-lives. If time permits, repeat the entire investigation usin;
different numbers of pennies.
