    Half-life is the time required for half of a radioactive sample to decay. Half-life cannot be changed-nuclei cannot be forced to decay faster or slower. Additionally, we cannot predict when an individual nucleus will decay. However, when analyzing a large sample containing many nuclei, half-life allows us to predict how much of the sample will remain after a given amount of time. This is useful for radiometric dating.
    Khan Academy is a nonprofit organization with the mission of providing a free, world-class education for anyone, anywhere. We offer quizzes, questions, instructional videos, and articles on a range of academic subjects, including math, biology, chemistry, physics, history, economics, finance, grammar, preschool learning, and more. We provide teachers with tools and data so they can help their students develop the skills, habits, and mindsets for success in school and beyond. Khan Academy has been translated into dozens of languages, and 15 million people around the globe learn on Khan Academy every month. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we would love your help!

    Nice video, thanks.
    But how do we know that the half-live of C14 is 5730 years? Radioactivity was discovered on the 19th century, right?

      True, but the decay of any radioisotope follows an exponential decay curve as shown at 8:42. So, even if we’ve observed a sample for less than one full half-life, we can measure how much of the parent remains after that time. Then we can extrapolate the rest of the decay curve and determine the radioisotope’s half-life.

    Why half life is 5730? Why not something else? Cz the atmosphere around the globe is not the same!
