In an agricultural experiment, a solution containing 1 mole of a radioactive material (t1/2 = 14.3 days) was injected into the roots of a plant. The plant was allowed 70 hours to settle down and then activity was measured in its fruit. If the activity measured was 1 µCi, what per cent of activity is transmitted from the root to the fruit in steady state?

Explanation:
It is given:
No. of atoms initially, = 1 mole
Radioactive material has the half-life, days
To settle down, the plant takes the time, t = 70 h
Constant of disintegration,
Activity,
Transmitted fraction of activity =
