This is a simulation of half-life.
Note that you can play/pause and single step the simulation. Also note that you can choose shorter – medium - or longer half-life.
Questions:
1. Run the simulation using the shorter half-life and attempt to determine the half-life of the substance. Repeat at least two more times and comment on whether your results are consistent or not.
2. Run the simulation using the medium half-life and attempt to determine the half-life of the substance. Repeat at least two more times and comment on whether your results are consistent or not.
3. Run the simulation using the longer half-life and attempt to determine the half-life of the substance. Repeat at least two more times and comment on whether your results are consistent or not.
4. Write up a lab report. Include all the usual parts of a lab report, including data table and conclusions.
