I believe the answer is A.
Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Plants used to prepare food in the presence of sunlight. Therefore, plants uses solar energy to make food.
Due to solar energy various chemical reactions take place in the food.
Thus, we can conclude that chemical energy is stored in our food and this chemical energy start out as light energy from the sun.
The half life equation is -->P(t) = Pi (0.5) ^ (t/c)
c is equal to the element to reach its half-life (5 seconds)t is equal to the duration of time the element is expose to (20 seconds)Pi is the initial amount (340)0.5 is the base of this exponential function to represent half-life.P(t) is the expression for the function of time
P(20) = 340 (0.5)^20/5P(20) = 340 (0.5) ^4P(20)= 21.25 grams
Fraction = P(t)/Pi = P(20)/Pi =21.25/340 =1/16
Therefore, when given 20 seconds, 340 grams of Fluorine-21 will degrade to 21.25 grams OR 1/16 of its original mass.
Hope this method helps! (This is my answer btw, I think you may have accidentally posted twice?)
