1/2=5750 years, 1/2(1/2)=1/4, (1/2)(1/2)(1/2)=1/8, (1/2)(1/2)(1/2)(1/2)=1/6
4 halflives have passed so 4(5750)=23000 years since the tree was chopped down
1000000 atoms (1/2)=500000 atoms(1/2)=250000(1/2)=125000(1/2)=62500 atoms would remain in the wood after 4 halflives
Dinosaurs became extinct around 62 million years ago, so if 14C's half life has a value of 5750 years, it would be gone or in such small amounts that dating would be ineffective today.
As Potassium decays into Argon in 1.3 billion years, apart from volcanic activity, it would enable geologists to effectively date things that are really, really, really old.
Answer:
Four Ca²⁺ and eight Cl⁻ ions.
Explanation:
If
0.20 mol·L⁻¹ NaCl = 8Na⁺ + 8Cl⁻
Then
0.10 mol·L⁻¹ NaCl = 4Na⁺ + 4Cl⁻
And
0.10 mol·L⁻¹ CaCl₂ = 4Ca²⁺ + 8Cl⁻
The square will contain 4 Ca²⁺ ions and 8 Cl⁻ ions.
It should resemble the diagram below
Answer:
Excretion is the process of removing wastes from the body. Organs of the excretory system include the kidneys, large intestine, skin, and lungs.
The excretory system removes metabolic wastes from the body. The major organs of excretion are the kidneys, a pair of bean-shaped organs located below the liver. The kidneys filter blood and regulate water balance in the body
Answer:
1) D. Dissolved Molecule
2) C. 11.30 M
Explanation:
<u><em>Q1:</em></u>
- Glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) is a non-polar molecule.
- When it is dissolved in water, it will be a dissolved molecule.
- It can not be ionized in water.
- So, the right choice is: <em>D. Dissolved molecule.</em>
<u><em>Q2</em></u>:
- The molarity is the no. of moles of dissolved solute in a 1.0 L of the solution.
<em>M = (n)solute (1000/V (mL) of the solution)</em>
n of LiCl = 2.60 mol, V = 230.0 mL.
∴ M = (n)solute (1000/V (mL) of the solution) = (2.60 mol)(1000)/(230.0 mL) = 11.30 M.
<u>Answer:</u> The volume when the pressure and temperature has changed is 400 mL
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the volume when temperature and pressure has changed, we use the equation given by combined gas law.
The equation follows:

where,
are the initial pressure, volume and temperature of the gas
are the final pressure, volume and temperature of the gas
We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the volume when the pressure and temperature has changed is 400 mL
