noname [10]

Answer:

The age of the sample is 4224 years.

Explanation:

Let the age of the sample be t years old.

Initial mass percentage of carbon-14 in an artifact = 100%

Initial mass of carbon-14 in an artifact = $[A_o]$

Final mass percentage of carbon-14 in an artifact t years = 60%

Final mass of carbon-14 in an artifact = $[A]=0.06[A_o]$

Half life of the carbon-14 = $t_{1/2}=5730 years$

$k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}$

$[A]=[A_o]\times e^{-kt}$

$[A]=[A_o]\times e^{-\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}\times t}$

$0.60[A_o]=[A_o]\times e^{-\frac{0.693}{5730 year}\times t}$

Solving for t:

t = 4223.71 years ≈ 4224 years

The age of the sample is 4224 years.

Answer:

Radioactive isotopes ranging from 11O to 26O have also been characterized, all short-lived. The longest-lived radioisotope is 15O with a half-life of 122.24 seconds, while the shortest-lived isotope is 12O with a half-life of 580(30)×10−24 seconds (the half-life of the unbound 11O is still unknown).
