Answer:
0.125 g
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Original amount (N₀) = 1 g
Number of half-lives (n) = 3
Amount remaining (N) =?
We can obtain the amount of the substance remaining by using the following formula:
N = 1/2ⁿ × N₀
N = 1/2³ × 1
N = ⅛ × 1
N = 0.125 × 1
N = 0.125 g
Thus, 0.125 g of the substance will remain after 3 half-lives.
