The half-life of a radioactive element depends upon

If a substance with a half-life of $3 \ days$ is kept for $12 \ days$,what fraction of the substance remains?

$2 \text{ g}$ of a radioactive sample having a half-life of $15$ days was synthesized on $1^{st}$ Jan $2009$. The amount of the sample left behind on $1^{st}$ March $2009$ (including both the days) is: (in $\text{ g}$)

If in the case of a radioisotope the value of half-life $(T_{1/2})$ and decay constant $(\lambda)$ are identical in magnitude, then their value should be

${ }^{227}Ac$ has a half-life of $22 \, years$ with respect to radioactive decay. The decay follows two parallel paths: ${ }^{227}Ac \longrightarrow { }^{227}Th$ and ${ }^{227}Ac \longrightarrow { }^{223}Fr$. If the percentage of the two daughter nuclides are $2.0$ and $98.0$,respectively,the decay constant (in $year^{-1}$) for ${ }^{227}Ac \longrightarrow { }^{227}Th$ path is closest to

The half-life of an isotope is $10 \ hrs$. How much will be left behind after $4 \ hrs$ in a $1 \ gm$ sample? (Assume the molar mass of the isotope is $1 \ g/mol$ for calculation purposes).
