3. How long will it take before twenty percent of our 1,000-gram sample of uranium- 235 has decayed? [See Section 6.6 Example 13] The decay equation is A(t) = Aoekt characteristic of the material. Suppose T is the time it takes for half of the unstable material in a sample of a radioactive substance to decay, called its half-life. Prove where t is the time for the decay, and K is the In0.5 that K = T.What is K for the uranium-235? Show the steps of your reasoning.
