Answer:
Half-life = 2.7 days
Step-by-step explanation:
The radioactive decay of an isotope follows the equation:
Ln[A] = -kt + ln[A]₀
Where [A] could be taken as the amount of A after t time, k is decay constant, [A]₀ initial amount of A.
Replacing to solve k:
Ln[3.125g] = -k*13.5days + ln[100g]
-3.465736 = -k*13.5days
k = 0.2567days⁻¹
Half-life is:
half-life = ln2 / k
Half-life = 2.7 days
