It will take 5.2 years to decay.
The half life of cobalt-60 is 5.2 years. The half life is the time taken for the mass of the substance to decrease by a half.
here, the amount of remaining substance is 50%,
so, 
n. log (0.5) = log (0.5)
n = 1
So it would take 1 half lives to decay this much, which is 1 x 5.2 which is 5.2 years.
what do you mean by radioactive decay ?
The process through which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy via radiation is known as radioactive decay, also known as nuclear decay, radioactivity, radioactive disintegration, or nuclear disintegration. A material that has unstable nuclei is considered as radioactive.

Answer:
Explanation:
All of above except carbon dioxide
The increase in the boiling point of a solvent is a colligative property.
That means that the increase in the boling point will be related to the number of particles (molecules or ions) present in the solution.
The higher the number of particles (molecules or ions) the higher the increase in the boiling point.
All the aqueous solutions presented are electrolytes, i.e. the solutes are ionic compounds.
Then, you have to compare the number of ions that you have in each solution.
A) 1.0 M KCl ---> 1.0 M K+ + 1.0 MCl- = 2 moles of particles / liter
B) 1.0 M CaCl2 --> 1.0M Ca(2+) + 1.0M * 2 Cl (-) = 3 moles of particle / liter
C) 2.0M KCl ---> 2.0 M K+ + 2.0 M Cl- = 4 moles of particle / liter
D) 2.0 M CaCl2 ----> 2.0 M Ca (2+) + 2.0M * 2 Cl (-) = 6 moles of particle / liter.
Then, the solution 2.0M CaCl2(aq) has the highest increase in the boiling point.
Answer: option D) 2.0 M Ca Cl2(aq)
