Question

(a) $\frac{N}{{{N_0}}} = {\left( {\frac{1}{2}} \right)^n} \Rightarrow \frac{1}{8} = {\left( {\frac{1}{2}} \right)^n} \Rightarrow n = 3$

Now $t = n

Vedclass · Accepted Answer

$11.4$

Vedclass · Answer

(a) $\frac{N}{{{N_0}}} = {\left( {\frac{1}{2}} ight)^n} \Rightarrow \frac{1}{8} = {\left( {\frac{1}{2}} ight)^n} \Rightarrow n = 3$

Now $t = n 	imes {T_{1/2}} = 3 	imes 3.8 = 11.4\;days$

$3.8$ days is the half-life period of a sample. After how many days, the sample will become $\frac{{1}}{{8}} \, th$ of the original substance
