Question:
The biological half-life of a radioisotope is the time required for the body to excrete half of the radioisotope. The effective half-life is the time required for the amount of a radioisotope in the body to be reduced to half its original amount, as a result of both the decay of the radioisotope and its excretion. Sulfur-35 (t1/2 * 87.4 d) is used in cancer research. The biological half-life of sulfur-35 in the human body is 90. d. What is the effective half-life of sulfur-35?
