How long will a radioactive isotope decay?
A)until it reaches its half-life
B) until there is no more material
C)until it becomes a different, stable element
D)until the neutrons are returned to the base element level

Answer :

Answer:

c - until it becomes a different, stable element

Explanation:

found it somewhere else than brainly you're welcome :)

The radioactive isotope decay until it becomes a different, stable element, The correct option is C.

What is half-life?

Half-life is the average lifetime of all the nuclei of a certain unstable atomic species, half-life is the amount of time it takes for a substance's radioactivity to decrease to half of its initial value.

A radionuclide's half-life is the amount of time it takes for half of its radioactive atoms to decay.

A decent rule of thumb is that you will have less radiation than 1% of the original quantity after seven half-lives.

The radioactive isotope decay until it becomes a different, stable element.

Hence, the correct option is C.
