Verified Answer :

Answer C, 50 grams.
This is because a half life is the time it takes for a sample of an unstable isotope to spontaneously so that half of the original sample remains

Answer : The correct option is, (C) 50 grams

Solution :

Formula used :

\(a=\frac{a_o}{2^n}\)

where,

a = amount of reactant left after n-half lives = ?

\(a_o\) = Initial amount of the reactant = 100 g

n = number of half lives  = 1

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\(a=\frac{100}{2^1}\)

\(a=50g\)

Therefore, the amount of uranium-238 remain will be, 50 g
