I’m pretty sure the correct answer is D.
Given, half life of a certain radioactive element = 800 years.
Amount of substance remaining at time t = 12.5%
Lets consider the initial amount of the radioactive substance = 100%
Using the half life equation:
A = A₀(1/2)^t/t₁/₂
where A₀ is the amount of radioactive substance at time zero and A is the amount of radioactive substance at time t, and t₁/₂ is the half-life of the radioactive substance.
Plugging the given data into the half life equation we have,
12.5 = 100 . (1/2)^t/800
12.5/100 = (1/2)^t/800
0.125 = (0.5)^t/800
(0.5)^3 = (0.5)^t/800
3 = t/800
t = 2400 years
Thus the object is 2400 years old.
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed but it can simply be transformed from one form to another.
For example, 
Mass of Na = 23 g/mol
Mass of Cl = 35.5 g/mol
Sum of mass of reactants = mass of Na + mass of Cl
= 23 + 35.5 g/mol
= 58.5 g/mol
Mass of product formed is as follows.
Mass of NaCl = mass of Na + mass of Cl
= (23 g/mol + 35.5) g/mol
= 58.5 g/mol
As mass reacted is equal to the amount of mass formed. This shows that mass is conserved.
As a result, law of conservation of mass is obeyed.
