    Half-life of a sample is 160 days. After 800 days, 1 g of the sample shall be reduced to:

    A)  \[\frac{1}{2}g\]                               

    B)  \[\frac{1}{5}g\]

    C)  \[\frac{1}{4}g\]                               

    D)  \[\frac{1}{32}g\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                              T = 800 days \[{{t}_{1/2}}=160\text{ }days\]                 \[n=\frac{T}{{{t}_{1/2}}}=\frac{800}{160}=5\]                 \[\frac{N}{{{N}_{0}}}={{\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{n}}\]                 \[N={{N}_{0}}{{\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{n}}=1{{\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{5}}\]                 \[N=\frac{1}{32}g\]
