Sodium-24, which is used to locate blood clots in the human circulatory system, has a half-life of 15.0 h . a sample of sodium-24 with an inital mass of 13.0 g was stored for 45.0 h . how many grams of sodium-24 are left in the sample after 45.0 h ?

0.3967mg of sodium-24 are left

Explanation:

If the half life of radioactive element (which is sodium-24 here) is , then at the end of this time the number of atoms in the sample will become half i.e. 1/2 .

if the original amount of atoms is N°. The formula for calculating the remaining atoms (N) left in the sample after t half lives would be:

Here, in this question,

Given amount of sodium-24 = N° = 13 grams

Half life of sodium-24 = t = 15

and Remaining amount of sodium after 45 hours = N = ?

Therefore, using the given Forumla:

the answer is a)
