The amount of an original element remaining after n half-lives can be calculated using the equation: \[R=I\left ( \frac{1}{2} \right )^{n} \nonumber \] where I represents the initial mass of the element and R represents the mass remaining.

Again, the sum of the atomic numbers is the same on both sides of the equation, as is the sum of the mass numbers. (Note that the electron is assigned an "atomic number" of –1, equal to its charge.)
