Radioactive materials are often used in biological studies. A radiation biologist studies the rate of decomposition of a certain substance and obtains the following data:
Time (days) | 0 | 4.0 | 8.0 | 12.0 | 16.0 |
Mass (μg) | 23.80 | 17.56 | 12.96 | 9.56 | 7.05 |
Determine the rate constant in units of days-1.
How many micrograms will remain after 22 days?
