Answer:

Half life of sample = 5.23 days

Step-by-step explanation:

We have half life of a radio active material

                 [tex]t_{1/2}=\frac{ln2}{k}[/tex]

Decay constant is given k = 0.1325 day⁻¹

       [tex]t_{1/2}=\frac{ln2}{0.1325}=5.23\boldsymbol{\texttt{ days}}[/tex]

Half life of sample = 5.23 days
