6.665 grams of the 13 grams remain after 8 hours.

<h3>How much of a 13 gram sample of iron-52 would remain after 8 hours?</h3>

The decay equation for the 13 grams of iron-52 is:

N(t) = 13g*e^{(-ln(2)/8.3h)*t}}

Where N is the amount of iron-52, and t is the time in years.

Where we used the fact that the half-life is exactly 8.3 hours.

Now, the amount that is left is given by N(8h), so we just need to replace the variable t by by 8 hours, so we get:

N(8h) = 13g*e^{(-ln(2)/8.3h)*8h}} = 6.665g

So 6.665 grams of the 13 grams remain after 8 hours.
