The correct option is
D None of these
We know that,
Radioactive disintegration follows first order kinetics.
Now, half life period of a reaction is the time taken by reaction to be half completed.
So, amount of reactant left after one half life period= [A]02 ; A0 is the amount present at t=0
Amount present after 2 half lines= [A]022
In general, amount of reactant left after n half lives=[A]02n
Now, Half life of U−238=4.5×109 yrs
Given time, t=1 billion years
=109 years
So, no. of half lives=1094.5×109=14.5
Amount of reactant left= [A]024.5
=[A]022.68
Now, at t=0, amount of U−238 present= 1 mole=6.022×1023 molecules (nuclei)
∴ No. of nuclei left after 1 billion years= 6.022×102322.68
=0.27×1023
