The time is 4:00 PM.
8 hours left in the day and 16 hours already passed.
To solve,
Hours left is a, so hours already passed = 2a.
We know a + 2a = 24
3a = 24
a = 8
2a = 16
So, time is 4 PM.

To determine how many half-lives have passed, you would need to divide the total time passed by the half-life of the substance. The result would give you the number of half-lives that have occurred.
It's 2 and a half hours, you've already answered it!
One-fourth of the original amount of the radioisotope remains after two half-lives have passed.
If ' L ' is the number of days in one half-life, then the number of half-lives in 32 days is (32 / L) .
The number is already rounded to a greater extent than that!

To determine the amount of potassium-42 left after 62.0 hours, we need to use the half-life of potassium-42 which is 12.4 hours. Calculate the number of half-lives that have passed (62.0 hours / 12.4 hours) = 5 half-lives. Each half-life halves the amount, so 1/2^5 = 1/32. Therefore, there will be 848 g * (1/32) = 26.5 g of potassium-42 left.
Whole numbers are already rounded to the nearest half.

There is 30 minutes in a half hour. There is no hours in half hours.
Two and a half hours is equal to 150 minutes. To convert hours to minutes, you multiply the number of hours by 60 since there are 60 minutes in an hour. Therefore, 2.5 hours x 60 minutes/hour = 150 minutes.
There are 5 half hours in 2.5 hours
