curie to gigabecquerel
Please provide values below to convert curie [Ci] to gigabecquerel [GBq], or change ↔.
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!
gigabecquerel [GBq]
Definition: A unit of radioactivity equal to 10^9 becquerels.
Historyandorigin: The prefix 'giga' represents a factor of 10^9, used for significant but not extreme levels of radioactivity.
CurrentUse: Used in industrial and medical applications, particularly in large medical isotopes or industrial radiography.
funfact: Gigabecquerels are often used to measure high activity sources in nuclear medicine!

How to Convert curie to gigabecquerel
1 curie [Ci] = 37 gigabecquerel [GBq]
1 gigabecquerel [GBq] = 0.027027027 curie [Ci]
we use cross multiplication method
curie [Ci] → gigabecquerel [GBq]
1 → 37
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*37=1*x
by simplifying
x=55.5
