Question

Situation:

Answer 1

The half life of the substance is 6.92 days.

What is the Half life  ?

Half life can be defined as the time required to reduce the concentration to half of its initial value.

Here the equation given is

$\rm N = N_o e^{-kt}$

The concentration will reduce to half therefore

$\rm N= \dfrac{N_o}{2}$

so,

$\rm 39/2 = 39 e^{- 0.1001 * t_{1/2}}$

ln 0.5 = - 0.1001 * t(1/2)

-0.693 = -.1001 * t(1/2)

t(1/2) = 6.92 days.

Therefore the half life of the substance is 6.92 days.
