becquerel to curie
Please provide values below to convert becquerel [Bq] to curie [Ci], or change ↔.
becquerel [Bq]
Definition: The SI unit of radioactivity, equal to one disintegration per second.
Historyandorigin: Named after Henri Becquerel, who discovered radioactivity in 1896, the becquerel measures the rate of decay of radioactive substances.
CurrentUse: Used globally to measure the activity of radioactive materials in scientific, medical, and environmental contexts.
funfact: One becquerel represents one atomic decay per second, and it’s used to track radiation in both medical diagnostics and environmental monitoring!
curie [Ci]
Definition: A unit of radioactivity, where 1 curie equals 3.7 × 10^10 disintegrations per second (or 37 billion Bq).
Historyandorigin: Named after Marie and Pierre Curie, who pioneered research on radioactivity in the early 20th century.
CurrentUse: Still used in some countries, particularly in the U.S., to measure the activity of certain radioactive materials, especially in medical applications.
funfact: The curie was the standard unit of radioactivity before the becquerel became more widely adopted in the SI system!

How to Convert becquerel to curie
1 becquerel [Bq] = 2.702702702E-11 curie [Ci]
1 curie [Ci] = 37000000000 becquerel [Bq]
we use cross multiplication method
becquerel [Bq] → curie [Ci]
1 → 2.702702702E-11
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*2.702702702E-11=1*x
by simplifying
x=4.054054054E-11
