The Time it takes for one half of the substance to decay into another substance?
half-life
Does the model of decay accurately represent the decay of a radioactive subsatnce?
If we are dating a substance on unknown age, no, this is because, we are assuming we know how much substance was initially present, also we assume there has been no contamination, lastly we assume the decay rate has always been the same.
What is the time it takes for half of a raioactive substance to decay?
Half life
What does the half life of a radioactive substance indicate?
It indicates how long it takes for the material to decay.
Why do viruses not cause decay?
Because they are obligate parasites
Substance to prevent tooth decay?
Flouride
The Time it takes for one half of the substance to decay into another substance?
half-life
What are prokaryotic cells that cause disease and decay?
Bacteria are prokaryotic cells that cause disease and decay.
what is the name of the element which causes tooth decay?
Tooth decay is the process that results in a cavity (dental caries). It occurs when bacteria in your mouth make acids that eat away at a tooth. If not treated, tooth decay can cause pain, infection, and tooth loss. The mixture of bacteria and acids make a sticky substance called plaque which if not treated, can cause your tooth to rot or turn into a yellowish colour.

What causes nuclear decay?
The instability of the nuclei is the basic cause of radioactive decay.
How many minutes will it take for 120.0g to decay to 7.50g?
It depends on the substance.
What is the time it takes for half of a raioactive substance to decay?
Half life
Can medications cause tooth decay?
Medications do not typically 'cause' dental decay, however, some medications can cause a decrease in salivary production. Saliva is important in neutralizing acids that cause decay. Therefore, some medications can contribute to the incidence of tooth decay.
Can antibiotics effect teeth decay?
no it doesn't cause decay in adults
Alpha decay and beta decay are two forms of radioactive decay that cause .?
Transmutation, which is the change of atoms from one element to another.
Can high fructose corn syrup cause tooth decay?
Yes. Anything with sugar in it (fructose is a kind of sugar) can cause tooth decay.
