The half life period of a radioactive element depends on its _______________________?
Correct answer: D. None of these
- A. Temperature
- B. Pressure
- C. Amount
- D. None of these
Explanation
The half-life is fixed by the decay constant of the isotope, so it does not depend on temperature, pressure or the quantity present. Hence none of the first three options is correct.
