Answer 1

The percentage of the radioactive isotope left is 25.0000%.

What is the half life?

The half life of a radioactive isotope is the time that will elapse before only half of the number of original isotopes will remain.

Now;

We are told that;

Half life (t1/2) = 55 days

Time taken (t) =  115 days

Ratio of isotope remaining = N/No

Thus;

N/No = (1/2)^t/t1/2

N/No = (1/2)^115/55

N/No = (1/2)^2

N/No =1/4

Hence, the percentage = 1/4 * 100/1 = 25.0000%
