levacccp [35]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Two Half-lives

Explanation:

Let number of Parent nuclei Initially present be X,

Then, finally \frac{X}{4} Parent nuclei Will remain with \frac{3X}{4} daughter nuclei.

In one half- life , parent nuclei becomes half of initial.

So, starting with X parent nuclei,

After one half-life, it will degrade to \frac{X}{2} .

After another half life , Parent nuclei will become half of \frac{X}{2}

Which is equal to \frac{X}{4}.

So, Parent nuclei have to go through Two half-lives.
