    The average life period of a radioactive element is reciprocal of its

    A)  half-life period

    B)  disintegration constant

    C)  number of atoms present at any time

    D)  number of neutrons

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Reciprocal of disintegration constant (k) of a radioactive element is called its average period. It is represented by the letter \[\tau (tau)\]lambda \[(\lambda )\] \[\lambda =\frac{1}{k}\]                 \[\because \]     \[k=\frac{0.693}{{{t}_{1/2}}}\]                 \[\lambda =\frac{1}{\frac{0.693}{{{t}_{1/2}}}}\] or \[\lambda =1.44\times {{t}_{1/2}}\]
