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.

How many parts per million of fluoride in a solution that is 500 grams of fluoride and 500,000 liters water
erik [133]

0.000001‬ppm

Explanation:

Mass of fluoride = 500g

Volume of water = 500000liters

Unknown:

Parts per million of fluoride = ?

Solution:

The parts per million is the amount of solute in milligram dissolved in a liter of water or milligram per kilogram of solvent

It is a unit used to express very small concentration.

 we need to convert g - mg

   500g = 500 x  10⁻³mg  = 0.5mg

   Concentration in parts per million = \frac{mass in mg}{Volume in liters}

Concentration in parts per million = \frac{0.5}{500000} = 0.000001‬ppm

What is the mass in grams of 8 moles of Cu?
frez [133]

Answer:

mass = 508 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Cu = 8 mol

Mass in gram = ?

Solution:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of Cu is 63.5 g/mol.

Now we will put the values in formula.

8 mol = mass /63.5 g/mol

mass = 63.5 g/mol ×8 mol

mass = 508 g

You have a 25.2 L sample of gas at 1.25 atm and 25.0 degrees Celsius. How many moles are present in this gas. For your answer, p
Elenna [48]

Answer:

  • <u>1.29 mol</u>

Explanation:

This is a direct application of the equation for ideal gases.

  • PV=nRT

Where:

  • P = pressure = 1.25 atm
  • V = volume = 25.2 liter
  • R = Universal constant of gases = 0.08206 atm-liter/K-mol
  • T = absolute temperature = 25.0ºC = 25 + 273.15 K = 298.15 K
  • n = number of moles

Solving for n:

  • n=\frac{PV}{RT}

Substituting:

n=\frac{1.25atm\times 25.2liter}{0.08206atm-liter/K-mol\times298.15K }\\\\n=1.29mol
