I believe that the answer for this question would be option A. 8 HOURS. Based on the given scenario above about a certain radioactive isotope placed near a Geiger counter, the half-life <span>of the isotope 32 hours later would be 8 hours. Hope this is the answer that you are looking for. </span>
Answer:
A metalloid is a type of chemical element which has a preponderance of properties in between, or that are a mixture of, those of metals and nonmetals. There is no standard definition of a metalloid and no complete agreement on which elements are metalloids. Despite the lack of specificity, the term remains in use in the literature of chemistry.
A series of six elements called the metalloids separate the metals from the nonmetals in the periodic table. The metalloids are boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, and tellurium. These elements look metallic; however, they do not conduct electricity as well as metals so they are semiconductors. They are semiconductors because their electrons are more tightly bound to their nuclei than are those of metallic conductors. Their chemical behavior falls between that of metals and nonmetals. For example, the pure metalloids form covalent crystals like the nonmetals, but like the metals, they generally do not form monatomic anions. This intermediate behavior is in part due to their intermediate electronegativity values. In this section, we will briefly discuss the chemical behavior of metalloids and deal with two of these elements—boron and silicon—in more detail.

Answer:
Each element has unique physical properties such as density, melting point, boiling point, etc. These properties can be used to identify an element using a reference book that contains such information about each element. Flame tests, atomic spectra, and spectroscopy can be used to identify some elements.
