Answer: Hmmmmm that's crazy....
There are a couple of equations one could use for this type of problem, but I find the following to be the easiest to use and to understand.
Fraction remaining (FR) = 0.5n
n = number of half lives that have elapsed
In this problem, we need to find n and are given the FR, which is 1.56% or 0.0156 (as a fraction).
0.0156 = 0.5n
log 0.0156 = n log 0.5
-1.81 = -0.301 n
n = 6.0 half lives have elapsed

Just wanted to help. Hopefully it's correct wouldn't want to waster your time ;)
They have no charge and are located inside the nucleus
The pressure of gas in your lungs is inversely proportionate to the volume in your lungs.
When you see a long dash joining two elements in the structural formula of a chemical molecule you can assume that the chemical bonds in the compound are simple bonds.
In the representation of chemical molecules long dashes are used to represent simple bonds since these bonds are longer than double and triple bonds, which are represented by = and ≡ respectively.
