Answer:
25% thorium will left after 50 days.
Explanation:
Half life:
A nuclear half is the time period of radioactive material in which its amount remain halved.
In given question it is stated that the half life thorium-234 is 25 days. Which means after passing the 25 days the amount of thorium must be halved of original amount.
For example,
If the original concentration was 100%, than after 25 days it will be 50%.
After 50 days amount of thorium left:
Number of half life = T (elapsed) / T half life
Number of half life = 50/25
Number of half life = 2
At first half life amount of thorium left = 100/2 = 50
After second half life amount of thorium left = 50/2 = 25
Total amount decayed = 50+25 = 75
Amount left after 50 days = 100-75 = 25
25% thorium will left after 50 days.
