Answer: Between 1 and 2.
Explanation:
Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
............(1)
where,
a = amount of reactant left after n-half lives = 40
= Initial amount of the reactant = 100
n = number of half lives
Putting in the values we get:
taking log on both sides
Thus half-lives that have elapsed is between 1 and 2

Answer:
One extraction: 50%
Two extractions: 75%
Three extractions: 87.5%
Four extractions: 93.75%
Explanation:
The following equation relates the fraction q of the compound left in volume V₁ of phase 1 that is extracted n times with volume V₂.
qⁿ = (V₁/(V₁ + KV₂))ⁿ
We also know that V₂ = 1/2(V₁) and K = 2, so these expressions can be substituted into the above equation:
qⁿ = (V₁/(V₁ + 2(1/2V₁))ⁿ = (V₁/(V₁ + V₁))ⁿ = (V₁/(2V₁))ⁿ = (1/2)ⁿ
When n = 1, q = 1/2, so the fraction removed from phase 1 is also 1/2, or 50%.
When n = 2, q = (1/2)² = 1/4, so the fraction removed from phase 1 is (1 - 1/4) = 3/4 or 75%.
When n = 3, q = (1/2)³ = 1/8, so the fraction removed from phase 1 is (1 - 1/8) = 7/8 or 87.5%.
When n = 4, q = (1/2)⁴ = 1/16, so the fraction removed from phase 1 is (1 - 1/16) = 15/16 or 93.75%.
