Charcoal with a carbon-14 activity of 0.60 compared to new wood has less than 5,730 years.

<h3>What is a radioactive isotope?</h3>

A radioactive isotope is an element in nature that emit radioactivity in a given period of time (e.g., the half-life for C14 is equal to 5,730 years).

Radioactive dating is a technique to measure the age of an element by measuring its radioactive activity.

In conclusion, charcoal with a carbon-14 activity of 0.60 compared to new wood has less than 5,730 yr.

Answer:

.67 L

Explanation:

.030 mol x 22.4 L / 1 mol = .67 L

22.4 was used because that is what 1 mol equals for a gas at stp.

Ten moles of hydrogen are allowed to react with 6 moles of oxygen. How much water will be
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

10 moles of water are produced,

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of H = 10 mol

Moles of O = 6 mol

Water obtained = ?

Solution:

Balance chemical equation:

2H₂ + O₂    →    2H₂O

Now we will compare the moles of H₂ and O₂ with water from balance chemical equation.

                            H₂             :          H₂O

                             2              :            2

                             10             :           10

                            O₂             :          H₂O

                             1              :            2

                             6             :           2×6 = 12

Number of moles of water produced by hydrogen are less so hydrogen will be limiting reactant and it will limit the yield of water thus, 10 moles of water are produced.
