Given below are two statements :

Statement $I:$ The law of radioactive decay states that the number of nuclei undergoing the decay per unit time is inversely proportional to the total number of nuclei in the sample.

Statement $II:$ The half life of a radionuclide is the sum of the life time of all nuclei, divided by the initial concentration of the nuclei at time $t =0$.
