a/c to question,
10% of a radioactive sample has decayed in 1 day.
Let initially radioactive sample is
after one day, radioactive sample remains, N =
=
using rate equation of radioactive,
.......(1)
Let after 2 days , radioactive sample remains N'
then, N' =
from equation (1),
N' =
N' =
N' =
hence, 81% radioactive sample remains in 2 days .
so, 19% of radioactive sample has decayed in 2 days.
