    Plot In (R0/R) against t. (b) From the slope of the best straight line through the points, find the decay constant λ. (c) Calculate the half-life t1/2. (b) From the slope of the best straight line through the points, find the decay constant λ. (c) Calculate the half-life t1/2.
    Ans : For t = 0,
    `` \,\mathrm{\,ln\,}\left(\frac{{R}_{\mathit{0}}}{R}\right)=\,\mathrm{\,In\,}\left(\frac{30\times {10}^{9}}{30\times {10}^{9}}\right)=0``

    For t = 75 s,
    `` \,\mathrm{\,ln\,}\left(\frac{{R}_{0}}{{R}_{4}}\right)=\,\mathrm{\,In\,}\left(\frac{30\times {10}^{9}}{3.8\times {10}^{9}}\right)=2.06``
    For t = 100 s,

    The required graph is shown below.
    (b) Slope of the graph = 0.028
    ∴ Decay constant, `` \lambda `` = 0.028 min`` -1``
    The half-life period`` \left({T}_{\frac{1}{2}}\right)`` is given by
    `` {T}_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{\lambda }``
    `` =\frac{0.693}{0.028}=25\,\mathrm{\,min\,}``
