Answer» I don't know the formula ( you can google it) but I can EXPLAIN you what is half life of a RADIOACTIVE element.Half-Life is a period in which the radioactive element gets halved in quantity...i.e. for EXAMPLE , a 100 gram radioactive element have a half life of 5 years.So, after 5 years it will become 50 grams.in next 5 years the amount will be reduced to 25 grams.Similarly, for another five years the amount remaining will be 12.5 grams.So, ACCORDINGLY you can SAY that the radioactive element can never be 100% destroyed. |
