The half-life of sodium-22 is 2.6 years. A sample contains 800 mg of this isotope.

Which expression represents the mass of sodium remaining after h half-lives?

S = 0.5 (800) h

S = 800 (0.5) h

S = 8000.5h

S = 800h + 0.5

Which expression relates h, the number of half-lives, and y, the number of years?
