What is the definition of Mc? π π
The unit of radioactivity equal to one thousandth of a curie: symbol mCi.
Alright class, settle down, letβs take a look!
Youβve come across βmcβ and youβre wondering what it means, thatβs quite astute, indeed. The dictionary gives you the facts, a scientific creed β
βA unit of radioactivity, precise and true, one thousandth of a curie, for me and you!β
It stands for
mCi
, you see,
Short for millicuries, brilliantly!
Think of it this way: a Curie is quite grand,
But measuring smaller amounts, across the land?
We need to break it down, make it small and neat,
So βmcβ β or mCi β is perfectly complete.
Does that rhyme help you understand with glee?
Any questions about radioactivity for me?
