Mission NC7 Half-Life

Mission NC7 pertains to half-life. Students demonstrate an understanding of half-life by analyzing and completing tables for the amount as a function of time. The mission consists of 28 questions organized into 7 Question Groups.

• The student should be able to define half-life and represent it using radioactive decay curves and tables displaying the percent or mass of an isotope as a function of time.
• The student should be able to use a half-life value to determine the amount (as a percent or a mass) of an isotope remaining after a given number of half-lives.
