The technetium isotope 99Tc is useful in medical imaging, but its short 6.0 h half-life means that shipping it from a source won't work; it must be created where it will be used. Hospitals extract the 99Tc daughter product from the decay of the molybdenum isotope 99Mo. The 99Mo source has a half-life of 2.7 days, so it must be replaced weekly. A hospital receives a 20 GBq 99Mo source.

What is its activity one week later?
