reference table N: Half Life of Rn-222 is 3.823d
=
8/3.823 = # of Half lives = 2.09 (roughly 2)
20g-> 40g-> 80g
doesn't say anything about decay so assume to increase since how much will remain in 8days
Ans: 80g
After 76 seconds, half of the radium-222 would have decayed (its half-life is about 3.8 days). Therefore, the quantity of radium-222 remaining in the 12-gram sample would be 6 grams.
After 133.5 days, there will be 0.125 mg of the 2 mg sample of iron-59 remaining. This can be calculated by taking into account each half-life period (44.5 days) and calculating the remaining amount after 3 half-lives (133.5 days).
After 10 days, 1/2 of the original isotope will remain since its half-life is 5 days. This means 6kg of the original isotope will remain after 1 half-life, which remains the same after 10 days since another half-life has passed.
After 32 days, approximately 5 milligrams of the 80-milligram sample of Iodine-131 would be left. Iodine-131 has a half-life of about 8 days, so after each 8-day period, half of the remaining sample will decay.
The equation for half-life decay is AT = A0 2 (-T/H) so, plug in 28, 24, and 84 and you get AT = (24) 2 (-84/28) AT = (24) (0.125) AT = 3 Of course, that's the formal way to do it. In this case, one could also have divided 84 by 28, giving 3, which means that 3 half-lives would be used, and that is simply 1/23 or 1/8.
The answer depends on 3240 WHAT: seconds, days, years?
The mass is 1,075 g.
The mass is 1,075 g.
After 48,2 days the amount of Th-234 will be 25 g.
Thorium-234 has a half-life of 24.1 days. How much of a 100-g sample of thorium-234 will be unchanged after 48.2 days?
The half-life of thorium-234 is about 24 days. Therefore, it would take approximately 96 days for one-sixteenth of the original 54.2 g sample of thorium-234 to remain.
12.5 g
At 8.1 days, 400 atoms of Au198 would remain in the sample. This is because after 8.1 days, two half-lives of Au198 have passed, reducing the initial 800 atoms to 400.
it all really depends on your body. for me it took eight days. I had to do court ordered drug tests
The riddle "How can a man stay awake for eight days?" has a clever twist: the answer is that he sleeps at night. The phrasing implies staying awake continuously, but by sleeping during the night, he can remain awake for the entire duration of the day over eight days. It's a playful reminder that the interpretation of words can change the meaning of a scenario.
After 76 seconds, half of the radium-222 would have decayed (its half-life is about 3.8 days). Therefore, the quantity of radium-222 remaining in the 12-gram sample would be 6 grams.
