Answer:
To find the half life of a substance, or the time it takes for a substance to decrease by half, you'll be using a variation of the exponential decay formula. Plug in ½ for a, use the time for x, and multiply the left side by the initial quantity of the substance.
8. After five half-lives what will be the fraction of initial substance remaining undecayed
(A) (1/2)10 (B) (1/2)5
(C) (1/2)4 (D) 1/2
Solution: It is quite obvious that after five half-lives, the fraction of the initial substance remaining is given by
N/N0 = (1/2)5, which given (B) as the correct option.
