    Half-life of a radioactive substance is 20 min. The time between \[20%\text{ }and\text{ }80%\] decay will be

    A) 40 min             

    B) 20 min

    C) 25 min             

    D) 30 min

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\frac{20}{80}=\frac{1}{{{2}^{t/20}}}\,\,or\,\,\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{{{2}^{t/20}}}\,\,or\,\,\frac{1}{{{2}^{2}}}=\frac{1}{{{2}^{t/20}}}\] \[or\,\,\,\,\,\,\frac{t}{20}=2\,\,\,or\,\,t=40\,\,\min \]
