The amount of sample that is left after a certain period of time, given the half-life, h, can be calculated through the equation.

             A(t) = A(o) (1/2)^(t/d)

where t is the certain period of time. Substituting the known values,

             A(t) = (20 mg)(1/2)^(85.80/14.30)

Solving,

           A(t) = 0.3125 mg

Hence, the answer is 0.3125 mg.

Calorie (cal), or small calorie, is the amount of energy needed to heat one gram of water by one degree Celsius.

One small calorie is approximately 4.2 joules.

A calorie is a unit of energy.
