5 Cоbаlt‑60 is а rаdiоactive isоtope of cobalt. The table gives the activity of a sample of cobalt‑60 over a period of 10 years. Time in years Activity 0 8000 2 6350 4 4900 6 3800 8 2900 10 2100 (a) Give a suitable unit for activity. (1) (b) The graph shows the data. (Supplied before the test, needs to be printed) (i) Label both axes. (2) (ii) Draw the curve of best fit. (1) (iii) Explain what is meant by the term half-life. (2) (iv) Use the graph to determine the half‑life of cobalt‑60. (2) (v) Estimate the time taken for the activity to decrease to 1/8 of its initial value. (2) (c) State two precautions the teacher must take to protect herself from the effects of radioactivity. (2) (d) Cobalt‑60 is produced when a neutron is absorbed by the nucleus of a stable atom of cobalt‑59. The nuclei of these two isotopes can be represented as Describe a similarity and a difference for the nuclei of these two isotopes of cobalt. (2) (e) Cobalt‑60 decays by beta emission. Describe what happens to the nucleus of a cobalt‑60 atom during beta decay. (2) (f) Write the balanced nuclear equation showing how cobalt-60 changes during beta decay. (4) (g) Cobalt‑60 also emits gamma radiation. Cobalt‑60 is produced in a nuclear reactor. Discuss the hazards involved and the precautions taken when disposing of cobalt‑60.
