Cyclopentane is NOT an isomer of pentane.

Isomers must have the same molecular formula.

The molecular formula of pentane is C₅H₁₂, while the molecular formula of cyclopentane is C₅H₁₀.

The two molecules cannot be isomers.

What was the half-life of a new isotope?
REY [17]
The half-life of any substance is the amount of time taken for half of the original quantity of the substance present to decay. The half-life of a radioactive substance is characteristic to itself, and it may be millions of years long or it may be just a few seconds.

In order to determine the half-life of a substance, we simply use:
t(1/2) = ln(2) / λ

Where λ is the decay constant for that specific isotope.
