A 64.7 kg patient is given a bone scan. A phosphorus compound containing the gamma-emitter 99Tc. is injected into the patient. It is taken up by the bones, and the emitted gamma rays are measured. The procedure exposes the patient to 8.82 mSv of radiation. What is the total energy deposited in the patient's body in Joules? Question 2 3 pts Plutonium-241, 241Pu, has an atomic number of Z=94 and a mass of 241.0568453 u, where u is an atomic mass unit. What is its binding energy in units of MeV?
