Answer:

1 gram

Explanation:

Half life = 25 years

Starting mass = 16 grams

Time = 100 years

Number of half lives = Time / Duration of Half life = 100 / 25 = 4

After first Half life;

Remaining mass = 16 / 2 =  8 g

After Second Half life;

Remaining mass = 8 / 2 =  4 g

After Third Half life;

Remaining mass = 4 / 2 =  2 g

After Fourth Half life;

Remaining mass = 2 / 2 = 1 g

Caitlin told Teddy that she heard that the largest diamond was found yesterday in Africa. What would be the best source of resea
matrenka [14]
B, the Internet.

If Caitlin told Teddy that the largest diamond was found YESTERDAY then it wouldn't be in last month's science magazine. It also wouldn't be able to be in an encyclopedia at the library because there wouldn't have been any time to write, publish, and for the library to get the encyclopedia in one day. Caitlin's parents may not know about Caitlin's claim or about the diamond in the first place. The Internet would likely have an article about the news-breaking diamond as soon as possible.
