Chapter 10, Problem 49P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The half-life of the radioactive element needs to be determined, if it get decreased from 2.4 g to 0.30 g in 142days.

Concept Introduction:

Half-life − It is the time required by original radioactive element to reduce to the half of its initial concentration. Thus, at half-life ( t1/2 )

  Concentration of reactant= Initial concentration2

The decay of the radioactive element can be described by the following formula-

  N(t)=N0(12)tt 1/2

Where

N(t) − Amount of reactant at time t

N0 − Initial concentration of the reactant

t1/2 − Half-life of the decaying reactant
