Best Answer

There are several isotopes of Sodium, each with different half lives. The longest lived, Sodium-22, has a half-life of 2.6027 years.

If you are interested in a different isotope, ask the question again and be specific about the isotope in the question.

How can half lives be shortened?

Half life of an element can't be changed.. It is a characteristic of a radioactive element which is independent of chemical and physical conditions.. Half life is that time in which half of radioactive sample( i.e., a radioactive element) decomposes. So no matter what amount you take half life of an element remains same.
