Answer:

84.96 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

No = 100 mg

t = 6 hours, N = 96% of No = 96 / 100 No

t = 24 hours, N = ?

Let after 24 hours the remaining part is N.

Use the decay law equation

N = No e^-λt

96 / 100 = e^-6λ  

0.96 = e^-6λ

taking natural log on both the sides

ln 0.96 = - 6λ

λ = 6.8 x 10^-3 per hour

Now,

N = No e^-24λ

N = No x e^-(24 x 6.8 x 10^-3)

N = No (0.8496)

N = 100 x 0.8496 = 84.96 mg
