Answer:

12 grams

Explanation:

For any radioactive substance

the amount of substance left after n half life  is given by = x/2^n

where x the original amount of substance.

____________________________________________

Half life of isotope Np-238 = 2 days

total no of days = 6

no of half life =total no of days/Half life of isotope Np-238 = 6/2 = 3

thus,

for our problem n = 3

initial amount of Np-238 = 96 grams

thus,

the amount of substance left after 3 half life = 96/2^3 = 96/8 = 12 grams.

Thus, 12 grams will be left after six days.
