The plutonium isotope has half life

Mathematics
1 answer:
ratelena [41]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The different isotopes have different "half-lives" – the time it takes to lose half of its radioactivity. Pu-239 has a half-life of 24,100 years and Pu-241's half-life is 14.4 years. Substances with shorter half-lives decay more quickly than those with longer half-lives, so they emit more energetic radioactivity.
