Answer:

332,193 years

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question above, we are to calculate the time in an half life question, hence, the formula is given as

t = In(Nt/No) ÷ -(In2/t½)

Where

t = time is takes for an substance to decay or reduce

Nt = Amount of sample after time = 2g

No = Initial amount of sample = 20g

t½ = Half life = 100,000 years

Hence,

t = In(2/20) ÷ (In 2/ 100,000)

t = 332192.80948874 years

Approximately = 332,193 years
