carbon, oxygen, neon, magnesium, sodium, iron
Explanation: Betelgeuse has become a red giant and has used up all of its hydrogen, so its helium is now fusing into heaveir elements such as the ones above.
The time it takes for 1g of strontium-90 to decay to 250 mg is; 57.6 years
<h3>What is the half life of an element?</h3>
The formula for half life is;
A(t) = A₀ * (¹/₂)^(t/t_1/2)
Where;
A(t) is amount left after t years
A₀ the initial quantity of the substance that will undergo decay;
t_1/2 is the half-life of the decaying quantity.
We are given;
t_1/2 = 28.8 years
A₀ = 1 g
A(t) = 250 mg = 0.25 g
Thus;
0.25 = 1 * (¹/₂)^(t/28.8)
log 0.25 = (t/28.8) log (1/2)
-0.60206 = (t/28.8) * -0.3010
t = 2 * 28.8
t = 57.6 years
