Max kept 100 grams of radioactive iodine in a container. He observed the amount of iodine left in the container after regular intervals of time and recorded them in the table shown below.
Time (days) Amount of iodine in container (in grams)
0 100
8 50
16 25
24 12.5
Based on the observations, which of these is most likely Max's inference? (2 points)
The half life period of radioactive iodine is 32 days.
The half life period of radioactive iodine is 50 days.
After 32 days, the amount of iodine left in the container will be 1.25 gram.
After 32 days, the amount of iodine left in the container will be 6.25 gram.

The half existence of the radioactive iodine is 8 days, so the sum will divide each 8 days. For an example of 100 g :
8 days : 50 grams
16 days : 25 grams
24 days : 12.5 grams
32 days : 6.25 grams
40 days : 3.125 grams

The correct answer to the given question is Option D. Which is 50 days. The assessment of the experiment is done and that's how we are determining the half life period of the iodine which is used in the experiment.
Eight days :fifty grams > Sixteen days : twenty five grams > Twenty four days : 12.5 grams > Thirty two days : 6.25 grams. This is how we are doing the assessment of the experiment and determining the half life period of the iodine in the experiment.
