Answer:
12.02 g
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Half life (t½) = 2 days
Original amount (N₀) = 96 g
Time (t) = 6 days
Amount remaining (N) =..?
Next, we shall determine the rate of disintegration of the isotope. This can be obtained as follow:
Half life (t½) = 2 days
Decay constant (K) =?
K = 0.693 / t½
K = 0.693 / 2
K = 0.3465 /day
Therefore, the rate of disintegration of the isotope is 0.3465 /day.
Finally, we shall determine the amount of the isotope remaining after 6 days as follow:
Original amount (N₀) = 96 g
Time (t) = 6 days
Decay constant (K) = 0.3465 /day.
Amount remaining (N) =.?
Log (N₀/N) = kt / 2.303
Log (96/N) = (0.3465 × 6) / 2.303
Log (96/N) = 2.079/2.303
Log (96/N) = 0.9027
Take the anti log of 0.9027
96/N = anti log (0.9027)
96/N = 7.99
Cross multiply
96 = N × 7.99
Divide both side by 7.99
N = 96 /7.99
N = 12.02 g
Therefore, the amount of the isotope remaining after 6 days is 12.02 g

Steel is an alloy and consists of more than one element (mainly iron and carbon), therefore steel is a mixture.
