The answer is B, because it will lose potential energy.
You can find the mass of an atom by adding the number of protons and neutrons. In this case the atom has 2 protons and 3 neutrons so the mass is 5.
Iodine-131 has a half life of 8 days, so half of it is gone every 8 days.
10 grams of iodine-131 is left for 24 days.
At 8 days: 10/2=5 grams left
At 16 days: 5/2=2.5 grams left
At 24 days: 2.5/2=1.25 grams left.
**
Your mistake is that you stopped at 16 days.
