Plutonium-238 is a radioactive element that decays over time into a less harmful element at a rate of 0.8 % per year. A power plant has 50 pounds of plutonium-238 to dispose of. How much plutonium-238 will be left after 10 years

46 pounds

Explanation:

Let the amount of Plutonium-238 left after 10 years be P

Let the initial mass of Plutonium-238 be Po

Let the rate of decay be r

Let the time taken be t

Hence;

P = Poe^-rt

P= 50e^-0.008×10

P= 46 pounds

sry but any answer choices

plants need sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make food. plants use the raw materials of water, nutrients they absorb from soil, and carbon dioxide to make sugars the plant can use. energy from the sun and chlorophyll are also needed.
