The question is incomplete. The complete question is:
The half-life for the decay of carbon-14 is 5.73x10^3 years. Suppose the activity due to the radioactive decay of the carbon-14 in a tiny sample of an artifact made of woodfrom an archeological dig is measured to be 2.8x10^3 Bq. The activity in a similiar-sized sample of fresh wood is measured to be 3.0x10^3 Bq. Calculate the age of the artifact. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
Answer:
570 years
Explanation:
The activity of the fresh sample is taken as the initial activity of the wood sample while the activity measured at a time t is the present activity of the wood artifact. The time taken for the wood to attain its current activity can be calculated from the formula shown in the image attached. The activity at a time t must always be less than the activity of a fresh wood sample. Detailed solution is found in the image attached.
A vibrating string can create longitudinal waves as depicted in the animation below.
The answer is C) vibrations
The answer is
a symmetrical molecule.
Answer:
<span>In the addition of hbr to 1-butyne the electrophile in the first step of the mechanism is <u>Hydrogen atom of HBr</u>.
Explanation:
In this reaction first of all HBr approaches the triple bond. A Pi Complex (weak inter-molecular interactions) is formed between the two molecules. And the triple bond attacks the partial positive hydrogen atom creating a negative charge on Bromine along with positive charge on itself (Sigma Complex). In second step the negative Bromide attacks the positive carbon of Butyne.</span>
The volume of H₂O = 5 L
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
5L of H₂ and 3L O₂
Reaction
2H₂ (g) + O₂(g) ⇒2H₂O(g)
Required
The volume of H₂O
Solution
Avogadro's hypothesis:
<em>In the same T,P and V, the gas contains the same number of molecules </em>
So the ratio of gas volume will be equal to the ratio of gas moles
mol H₂ = 5, mol O₂ = 3
From equation, mol ratio H₂ : O₂ = 2 : 1, so :
mol H₂O based on mol H₂, and from equation mol ratio H₂ : H₂O=2 : 2, so mol H₂O = 5 mol and the volume also 5 L
