Urutan daya tembus sinar-sinar radioaktif dimulai dari yang paling kuat adalah.......
Correct Answer
E. Gama, beta, alfa
Explanation
The correct answer is gama, beta, alfa. This is because gamma rays have the highest penetrating power among the three types of radioactive rays. They can easily pass through most materials and are the most dangerous to human health. Beta particles have a lower penetrating power and can be stopped by a sheet of aluminum or a few centimeters of air. Alpha particles have the lowest penetrating power and can be stopped by a sheet of paper or a few centimeters of air.

Diantara sinar/partikel yang dipancarkan oleh peluruhan unsur radioaktif berikut yang tidak bermasa dan tidak bermuatan adalah ....
Correct Answer
C. Gamma
Explanation
Gamma rays are a type of electromagnetic radiation that is emitted during radioactive decay. Unlike alpha and beta particles, gamma rays do not have mass or charge. Gamma rays are high-energy photons that can penetrate through materials and are often used in medical imaging and radiation therapy. Therefore, the correct answer is gamma.

Suatu unsur radioaktif meluruh menjadi unsur baru dengan nomor ato berkurang satu, sedangkan masanya tetap. Partikel yang dipancarkan pada peluruhan tersebut adalah....
Correct Answer
B. Elektron
Explanation
When a radioactive element undergoes decay, it transforms into a new element with a decreased atomic number. This indicates that a proton is lost during the decay process. The particle that is emitted during this decay is an electron, which has a negative charge. Therefore, the correct answer is "elektron".

Correct Answer
B. Positron
Explanation
When a radioisotope of 11 23Na decays, it forms an isotope of 10 22Ne by emitting a particle called a positron. A positron is a positively charged electron.
5.
Perubahan proton menjadi neutron di dalam inti disertai pemancaran .....
Correct Answer
A. Elektron
Explanation
Perubahan proton menjadi neutron di dalam inti disertai pemancaran elektron. This is known as beta decay. In beta decay, a proton in the nucleus is converted into a neutron, and an electron (also known as a beta particle) is emitted from the nucleus.
6.
Pada reaksi inti berikut ini 5 10B + 2 4He 7 13N + X ; X adalah .......
Correct Answer
B. Neutron
Explanation
In the given nuclear reaction, 5 10B + 2 4He → 7 13N + X, the reactants are boron-10 (10B) and helium-4 (4He), and the product is nitrogen-13 (13N). The X represents an unknown particle that is produced in the reaction. Based on the conservation of mass and charge, the X particle must have no charge (neutron) because the total number of protons and neutrons on both sides of the reaction should be equal. Therefore, the correct answer is neutron.
7.
Mula-mula disimpan radioisotop yang mempunyai waktu paruh 10 hari, setelah disimpan selama 30 hari, maka tersisa radioisotop X sebanyak ......
Correct Answer
C. 12,5%
Explanation
The given question is asking for the percentage of radioisotope X that remains after it has been stored for 30 days. The radioisotope has a half-life of 10 days, which means that after 10 days, half of the radioisotope will decay. After another 10 days (20 days total), half of the remaining radioisotope will decay, leaving 25% of the original amount. After another 10 days (30 days total), half of the remaining radioisotope will decay again, leaving 12.5% of the original amount. Therefore, the correct answer is 12.5%.
8.
Waktu paruh 210 Bi adalah 5, jika mula-mula disimpan sebanyak 8 gram dan kemudian ternyata sisanya tinggal 1 gram, maka unsur tersebut telah disimpan selama .....
Correct Answer
B. 15 hari
Explanation
The half-life of 210 Bi is 5 days. If initially there were 8 grams of the element and now only 1 gram remains, it means that half of the element has decayed. Since the half-life is 5 days, it took 5 days for half of the element to decay from 8 grams to 4 grams. Therefore, it would take another 5 days for the remaining 4 grams to decay to 2 grams, and another 5 days for the remaining 2 grams to decay to 1 gram. So, in total, it would take 15 days for the element to decay from 8 grams to 1 gram.
9.
Bila waktu paruh suatu radioaktif = T detik, maka setelah 4T detik unsur radioaktif tinggal ....
Correct Answer
D. 1/16 bagian
Explanation
The correct answer is 1/16 bagian. This is because the question states that the half-life of a radioactive element is T seconds. This means that after T seconds, half of the radioactive element will remain. Therefore, after 4T seconds, the radioactive element will go through two half-lives, resulting in 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4 of the element remaining. After 4T seconds, the element will go through another two half-lives, resulting in 1/4 * 1/2 = 1/8 of the element remaining. Finally, after 4T seconds, the element will go through another two half-lives, resulting in 1/8 * 1/2 = 1/16 of the element remaining.

Isotop radioaktif yang dipakai untuk mempelajari mekanisme reaksi esterifikasi adalah ....
Correct Answer
D. O-18
Explanation
O-18 is the correct answer because it is an isotope that can be used to study the mechanism of esterification reactions. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons, and O-18 is an isotope of oxygen. By using O-18 labeled compounds in esterification reactions, researchers can track the movement of the oxygen atoms and gain insights into the reaction mechanism. This is because O-18 is a stable isotope that can be easily detected and distinguished from other isotopes of oxygen.

C. C-14
Explanation
C-14 is the correct answer because it is a radioisotope that is commonly used in radiocarbon dating. Radiocarbon dating is a method used to determine the age of organic materials by measuring the amount of C-14 remaining in the sample. Since photosynthesis involves the uptake of carbon dioxide by plants, the C-14 isotope can be used to trace the carbon cycle and study the process of photosynthesis.
