Interpretation:
Number of half-lives that are elapsed has to be calculated from the given diagram where platinum-192 decays to osmium-188.
Concept Introduction:
Radioactive nuclides undergo disintegration by emission of radiation. All the radioactive nuclide do not undergo the decay at a same rate. Some decay rapidly and others decay very slowly. The nuclear stability can be quantitatively expressed by using the half-life.
The time required for half quantity of the radioactive substance to undergo decay is known as half-life. It is represented as
The equation that relates amount of decayed radioactive material, amount of undecayed radioactive material and the time elapsed can be given as,
