Most problems are not so simple. To solve more general carbon-dating problems, you must first find the value of the decay consta

nt for 14C, so that you can easily use the decay equation.
Using the given half-life, 5730 years, find the value of the decay constant for 14C.

Answer:

Half-life = 1.21x10⁻⁴ years⁻¹

Explanation:

The kinetics decay of ¹⁴C follows the first order reaction. That means half-life of ¹⁴C is defined as:

Half-life = ln 2 / K

<em>Where K is decay constant.</em>

<em />

As decay constant of ¹⁴C is 5730 years, half-life is:

Half-life = ln 2 / 5730 years

<em>Half-life = 1.21x10⁻⁴ years⁻¹</em>

<em />

Elan Coil [88]

Students performed a procedure similar to Part II of this experiment (Analyzing Juices for Vitamin C Content) as described in the procedure section. Given that molarity of DCP is 9.98x10-4 M, it took 16.34 ml of DCP to titrate 10 mL of sample.

Amount of ascorbic acid = 0.050 L sample (0.01634 L DCP/0.01 L sample)( 9.98x10-4 mol DCP/L DCP)(1 mol Ascorbic acid/ 1mol DCP)(176.124 g/mol)(1000mg/1g)= 14.36 mg ascorbic acid
