Assuming that other measures remain the same, as the sample estimate increases both ends of the confidence interval will increase. In effect, the confidence interval will be translated to a higher value without any change in its size.Assuming that other measures remain the same, as the sample estimate increases both ends of the confidence interval will increase.

If the substance has a half-life of 10 years, there would be 10 half-lives in a 100-year span. Each half-life reduces the amount by half, so after 100 years, 1/2^10 = 1/1024 grams of the sample would remain.
Approximately 400 grams of the potassium-40 sample will remain after 3.91 years, as potassium-40 has a half-life of around 1.25 billion years. This means that half of the initial sample would have decayed by that time.
halflife
After 132 hours, 1/4 of the initial sample of 10 Ci of Mo-99 would remain. Since the half-life is 66 hours, after 66 hours half of the sample would remain (5 Ci), and after another 66 hours (totaling 132 hours), half of that remaining amount would be left.

If a sample of radioactive material has a half-life of one week the original sample will have 50 percent of the original left at the end of the second week. The third week would be 25 percent of the sample. The fourth week would be 12.5 percent of the original sample.
After 3 half-lives, half of the original sample would remain unchanged. After the 1st half-life: 300 unchanged atoms. After the 2nd half-life: 150 unchanged atoms. After the 3rd half-life: 75 unchanged atoms would remain.
A sample of 187 rhenium decays to 187-omium with halflife of 41.6 billion years. If all 188 osmium are normalized isotopes.
After 6 half lives, the remaining will be (1/2)6 i.e 1/64 th of the initial amount. Hence by percentage it would be 1.5625 %
Approx 1/8 will remain.
This would depend on the specific sample and its stability. Without additional information, it is not possible to determine how much of the sample would remain unchanged after two hours.
