Answer:
Time taken = 174 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Half life is the time take for a subsrtance taken to decay to half of it's origial or initial concentration.
In this probel, the haf life is 87 days, this means that after evry 87 days, the concentration or mass of sulfur-35 decreases by half.
If the starting mass is 1.00g, then we have;
1.00g --> 0.5g (First Half life)
0.5g --> 0.25g (Second half life)
This means that sulphur-335 would undergo two half lives for 0.25g to remain.
Total time taken = Number of half lives * Half life
Time taken = 2 * 87
Time taken = 174 days
