Okay, so I am studying with Chad's video and use KBB as a supplement. In KBB GC chapter 12, it has a exponential decay equation which is:
n=noe^-landat. since there is no calculator for the chem section do I need to know this equation? thanks~

I would guess no. But back in my day, 2 years ago, we didnt have a calculator on any section.

i think chad was trying to explain a concept there. just know how to use half life and the know the radioactive decays (alpha decay.....)
