Worked Example 5: Radioactive Decay and First Order Kinetics (Medium)) | A level H2 Chemistry |

This video tutorial looks at how we can make use of the integrated rate law and apply it to a radioactive decay reaction that follows first order kinetics. Through the use of integrated rate law, we would be able to estimate and predict the age of any fossil samples. This is the 2nd example that discusses the age of fossil sample and its level of difficulty is 'medium'.

Is there an even simpler method to solve this question? Yes, there is. All you need is just one special formula and it is not integrated rate law =)
