Manganese-52 has a half-life of 6 days. How many days would a scientist have to wait for the radioactivity to be 12.5% the start
sineoko [7]

Answer:

Let N = N0 where N0 is the number of atoms originally present.

In 6 days    N = N0 / 2

In 12 days   N = N0 / 4

In 18 days   N = N0 / 8    = .125 N0

So it would take 18 days.
