Because alloys have qualities that are preferable to pure metals, almost all metals are utilised as alloys—that is, mixes of several elements. Alloying is done for a variety of purposes, the most common of which are to increase strength, corrosion resistance, or cost savings.

Radio active decay reactions follow first order rate kinetics.
a) The half life and decay constant for radio active decay reactions are related by the equation:
Where k is the decay constant
b) Finding out the decay constant for the decay of C-14 isotope:
c) Finding the age of the sample :
35 % of the radiocarbon is present currently.
The first order rate equation is,
![[A] = [A_{0}]e^{-kt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5BA%5D%20%3D%20%5BA_%7B0%7D%5De%5E%7B-kt%7D%20%20%20)
![\frac{[A]}{[A_{0}]} = e^{-kt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BA%5D%7D%7B%5BA_%7B0%7D%5D%7D%20%3D%20e%5E%7B-kt%7D%20%20)
t = 7923 years
Therefore, age of the sample is 7923 years.
Answer:
2. The metal would lose one electrons and the non metal would gain one electrons
Explanation:
An atom of a certain element reacts with the atoms of other elements in order to fullfill its outermost shell (called valence shell).
We notice the following:
- The elements in Group 1 (which are metals) have only 1 electron in their valence shell
- The elements in Group 17 (which are non-metals) have 1 vacancy (lack of electron) in their valence shell
This means that in order for both an atom of group 1 and an atom of group 17 to fullfill the valence shell, they have to:
- The atom in group 1 has to give away its only electron of the valence shell
- The atom in group 17 has to gain one electron in order to fullfill the shell
Therefore, the correct option is
2. The metal would lose one electrons and the non metal would gain one electrons
