  • A
    $\left(\lambda+ T _{1 / 2}\right)=\frac{ln }{2}$
  • $T _{1 / 2}=\frac{ln2}{\lambda}$
  • C
    $T _{1 / 2}\; ln 2=\lambda$
  • D
    $T _{1 / 2}=\frac{1}{\lambda}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$T _{1 / 2}=\frac{ln2}{\lambda}$
b
(b) Relation between half-life ( $T_{1 / 2}$ ) of a radioactive substancce and its decay constant $\lambda$ is $\lambda=\frac{\log _{e} 2}{T_{1 / 2}}$
