when liquid water changes into solid ice, it increases in mass
Atomic Mass is equal to the sum of the number of protons and neutrons.
Thus the atomic mass = 3 + 4
= 7
Answer:
4121 years
Explanation:
From;
0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log No/N
t1/2= half life of the carbon-14
No= count rate of the living tissue
N= count rate of the sample
t = age of the sample
0.693/5730 =2.303/t log (13.5/8.2)
1.21 * 10^-4 = 2.303/t * 0.2165
1.21 * 10^-4 = 0.4986/t
t = 0.4986/1.21 * 10^-4
t = 4121 years
Answer: Options (a) and (d) are the correct answer.
Explanation:
A catalyst is the substance which helps in increasing the rate of reaction.
Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy required by reactants to start the reaction. On addition of catalyst, the path of reaction changes because the energy barrier gap reduces and hence, the activation energy also decreases.
In the absence of catalyst, we need to increase the temperature so that reaction can occur quickly.
Whereas on addition of catalyst, there is no need to increase the temperature as the catalyst itself is sufficient to increase the rate of reaction. As a result, temperature should be lowered when there is addition of catalyst in the reaction.
Thus, we can conclude that catalysts can save money by essentially lowering the activation energy and temperature required.
