    The half life of a radioactive element is 3.8 days. The time at the end of which 1/20th of the element will remain undecayed will be:

    A)  36 day                                 

    B)  12.86 day

    C)  24.20 day           

    D)  16.40 day

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    Time \[(T)=\frac{2.303\times {{t}^{1/2}}}{0.693}\log \frac{{{N}_{0}}}{N}\] \[=\frac{2.303\times 3.8}{0.693}\log \left( \frac{{{N}_{0}}}{{{N}_{0}}/20} \right)\] \[=\frac{2.303\times 3.8}{0.693}\log 20\] \[=16.4day\]
