Half-Life calculator

Solves decay both ways: amount left after a time, or time to reach a target, with the decay constant and a halving schedule.

This tool is in beta

Still being tested. If a result looks wrong, tell us.

Report a problem

Enter a starting amount and a half-life.

The math is the pure exponential law A = A₀·2^(−t/T), the same curve for radioactive nuclides, drug clearance, and any process that sheds a fixed fraction per interval. The model assumes a single well-defined half-life and first-order kinetics: it does not model dosing schedules, biological uptake and release, chains of decay products, or saturation. The halving schedule lists whole half-lives only, so the last row is not a prediction of when the substance is gone.

Whole halvings listed in the table below, 1 to 12 rows.

Numbers stay within ±1,000,000,000,000,000. The amount can be any unit you like: grams, counts, milligrams, percent of a dose. Decay never reaches exactly zero, so a target of zero has no answer.
