Question:
The nuclide 244Bk (berkelium) decays by producing α particles, which capture electrons and form He atoms. Its half-life is 4.4 h. A sample of mass 1.0 mg was placed in a container of volume 1.0 cm3 that was impermeable to α radiation, but there was also a hole of radius 2.0 µm in the wall. What is the pressure of helium at 298 K, inside the container after
(a) 1.0 h,
(b) 10 h?

I graduated in 2018 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from Dalubhasaan ng Lungsod ng San Pablo. I tutored students in classes and out of classes. I use a variety of strategies to tutor students that include: lecture, discussions about the subject matter, problem solving examples using the principles of the subject matter being discussed in class , homework assignments that are directed towards reinforcing what we learn in class , and detailed practice problems help students to master a concept. I also do thorough research on Internet resources or textbooks so that I know what students need to learn in order to master what is being taught in class .
