half life of a radioactive substance is 10 days if originally 100mg of the substance was present what will be activity of the substance after 5 days

half life T1/2 = 10days

given time t=5days

N initial =No=0.1g

N final=N=?

N/No= (1/2)^t/T1/2

N=No(1/2)^t/T1/2

=0.1 (1/2)^1/2

=0.1/root2

=0.141g ........

  • -4
0.1/root 2 is 0.07
  • -3
Its Right

  • -3
