11
Q
- What is specific heat?

| 2. How to figure out the half life?
1. The half-life of a radioisotope is the time for the radiation
level to decrease (decay) to one-half of the original value.
2. determine the half life of substance. Next divide the time in question by the half life time. Now you know how many half lives you must account for. Now take the mass ie: 36mg and divide by 2. Then divide the answer by 2. Continue dividing the answer by 2 until you have passed the needed number of half lives.
