What is the time it takes for half of the atoms in a radioactive element to decay?
The half-life
Is the half-life of a chemical element one-half of the amount of a radioactive element to decay?
The half-life is the time that it takes for 1/2 of a material to decay.
What radioactive element is the time it takes for half of the radioactive atoms to decay?
The half-life
Is a period of an element the amount of time it takes for half of a radioactive isotope to decay?
False- the period is the horizontal row the element is in
What is it called when it takes an element half the amount of time for a radioactive isotope to decay?
Half-life
How long will it take half of a radioactive sample to decay?
The length of time depends on the element and isotope, but the point at which half of the sample has decayed is known as the half-life.
The time it takes for half of the radioactive element to decay is the element's what?
The time it takes for half the atoms in a sample of a radioactive element to decay is called the half life.

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.
What is the name of the time required to change a part of a radioactive element to a stable element?
half life
The half-time of an element is important for determining the?
...age of the sample.
