Chapter 43, Problem 43.61(choose chapter or problem)
Measurements indicate that 27.83% of all rubidium atoms currently on the earth are the radioactive 87Rb isotope. The rest are the stable 85Rb isotope. The half-life of 87Rb is 4.75 * 1010 y. Assuming that no rubidium atoms have been formed since, what percentage of rubidium atoms were 87Rb when our solar system was formed 4.6 * 109 y ago?
