What is half-life?
Half-life is the time required for a quantity to reduce to half of its initial value through decay. It is constant regardless of the starting amount.
Does half-life ever reach zero?
Mathematically, no. The exponential decay function asymptotically approaches zero but never reaches it. In practice, the quantity becomes negligibly small.
What are some real half-lives?
Carbon-14: 5,730 years. Uranium-238: 4.5 billion years. Iodine-131: 8 days. Caffeine in the human body: about 5 hours.
