The answer is 0.62g.
Solution:
From year 1960 to year 2030, it has been
2030-1960 = 70 years
The half-life of the radioactive element is 28 years, then the sample will go through
70 years * (1 half-life/28 years) = 2.5 half-lives
Starting with a 3.5 gram sample, we will have
3.5*(1/2) after one half-life passes
3.5*(1/2) * (1/2) = 3.5*(1/4) after two half-lives pass
3.5*(1/4) * (1/2) = 3.5*(1/8) after three half-lives pass and so on
Therefore, we can write the remaining amount of the sample after the number n of half-lives have passed as
mass of sample = initial mass of sample/2^n
The mass of the remaining sample for n = 2.5half-lives can be now calculated as
mass of sample = 3.5 grams / 2^2.5 = 0.62 g
Each sublevel can have 6 electrons , basically 2 s orbital electrons 6 p orbitals electrons 14 f orbital electrons
Hope this helps.. if not sorry
B. Science is based off of evidence and factual statements. Things that can be observed. Whereas the other answers someone can believe something different. But if 10 people are in a room, they can observe that bees prefer red flowers.
