Radioactive Decay: The atom 40K decays radioactively to the gas 40Ar. An ancient rock is found to contain enough 40Ar gas to indicate that 77.0% of the 40K in the rock has decayed to 40Ar since the rock solidified. (Any previous argon would have boiled out of liquid rock.) How long ago did the rock solidify? The half-life of 40K is 1.25 billion years.
