How many half-lives must elapse until 84 % of a radioactive sample of atoms has decayed? -g?

Half-life is the time required for decay of 50% of radio-active nuclei.

Thus, when radio-active material crosses 1st half-life, 100/2 = 50% radio-active material is left and remaining 50% is elapsed.

When, when radio-active material crosses 2nd half-life, 50/2 = 25% radio-active material is left and remaining 75% is elapsed.

When radio-active material crosses 3rd half-life, 25/2 = 12.5% radio-active material is left and remaining 87.5% is elapsed.

Thus, 2 half-lives must elapse until 84 % of a radioactive sample of atoms has decayed.

Ions gain or lose electrons

Hello! data: p (pressure) = 1.25 atmv (volume) = ? (in l)t (temperature) = 298 kn (number of mols) = 0.900 molesr (gas constant) = 0.082 (atm*l/mol*k)apply the data to the clapeyron equation (ideal gas equation), see: i hope this . =)
