Answer: 0.48g (A)

Explanation:

After each half life you have half the amount you had in the previous half life.

Since one half life takes 8 days, in 8 days one half life will take place

This means that the amount after 8 days will be half of what was there before

0.96/2 = 0.48g

Answer:

A

Explanation:

0.48 g
