Explain how much pu-241 and am-241 present in 100 years

Reference no: EM13554661

Plutonium-241 has a half-life of 14.4 years and decays to Am-241. Em-241 has a half life of 432.7 years and decays to NP-237. If you bury 100 curies of Pu-241 today, how much Pu-241 and Am-241 will be present in 100 years?
