6. Bananas are slightly radioactive due to the presence of large amounts of potassium. Potassium undergoes radioactive decay according to two paths (branching reaction): 10K → Ca+B(89.3%), rate constant is kı 10K + 10 Ar+B+ (10.7%), rate constant is ką Determine the values of kı and kz. The half-life for potassium decay is 1.3 x 10 years.
