Question 4 • *MHS - Physical Science - S1 - CR
A half-life is the time it takes for half of the remaining radioactive substance to decay. For example, starting with 100 units, 50 decay in the first half-life; in the next half-life, only 25 of the remaining 50 decay. So more radioactivity is lost during the first half-life than during later half-lives, as choice A states.
