If an 900.0 g sample of radium-226 decays to 225.0 g of radium-226 remaining in 3,200 years, what is the half-life of radium-226? (3 points)

1600 yr

Explanation:

The half-life of radium-226 is the time it takes for half of it to decay.  

After one half-life, half of the original amount will remain.  

After a second half-life, half of that amount will remain, and so on.  

We can construct a table as follows:  

We see that the mass will drop to 225.0 g after two half-lives.

The mass dropped to 225.0 g in 3200 yr.  

If 3200 yr = 2 half lives,

1 half-life = 1600 yr

The decay curve for your sample is shown below. The mass has dropped to half its original value (450 g) after 1600 yr and to one -fourth  (225.0 g) after 3200 yr.

? you expect us to answer this? ? this is your schoolwork, i don't think we can with this, i think it would considering being

there are no statements provided but here is why:

sulfur belongs to group 16 because it can be found in nature whether it is in a free or combined state.

hope this
