A unit of amount used in the measurement of radioactive substances For example, five picocuries of radon are five trillionths of a curie and are equivalent to 11 radioactive radon atoms decaying every minute
A measure of radioactivity One picocurie of radioactivity is equivalent to 0 037 nuclear disintegrations per second
One trillionth (10-12) of the amount of radioactivity represented by a curie (Ci) A curie is the amount of radioactivity that yields 3 7 x 1010 radioactive disintegrations per second (dps) A picocurie yields 2 22 disintegrations per minute (dpm) or 0 037 dps
