Answer : The half life of 28-Mg in hours is, 6.94
Explanation :
First we have to calculate the rate constant.
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:
where,
k = rate constant
t = time passed by the sample = 48.0 hr
a = initial amount of the reactant disintegrate = 53500
a - x = amount left after decay process disintegrate = 53500 - 10980 = 42520
Now put all the given values in above equation, we get
Now we have to calculate the half-life.
Therefore, the half life of 28-Mg in hours is, 6.94
