A tree falls in a forest. How many years must pass before the 14C activity in 1.03 g of the tree's carbon drops to 1.02 decay pe

Illusion [34]

Answer:

t = 5.59x10⁴ y

Explanation:

To calculate the time for the ¹⁴C drops to 1.02 decays/h, we need to use the next equation:

$A_{t} = A_{0}\cdot e^{- \lambda t}$ (1)

where $A_{t}$ : is the number of decays with time, A₀: is the initial activity, λ: is the decay constant and t: is the time.

To find A₀ we can use the following equation:

$A_{0} = N_{0} \lambda$ (2)

where N₀: is the initial number of particles of ¹⁴C in the 1.03g of the trees carbon

From equation (2), the N₀ of the ¹⁴C in the trees carbon can be calculated as follows:

$N_{0} = \frac{m_{T} \cdot N_{A} \cdot abundance}{m_{^{12}C}}$

where $m_{T}$ : is the tree's carbon mass, $N_{A}$ : is the Avogadro's number and $m_{^{12}C}$ : is the ¹²C mass.

$N_{0} = \frac{1.03g \cdot 6.022\cdot 10^{23} \cdot 1.3\cdot 10^{-12}}{12} = 6.72 \cdot 10^{10} atoms ^{14}C$

Similarly, from equation (2) λ is:

$\lambda = \frac{Ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}$

where t 1/2: is the half-life of ¹⁴C= 5700 years

$\lambda = \frac{Ln(2)}{5700y} = 1.22 \cdot 10^{-4} y^{-1}$

So, the initial activity A₀ is:

$A_{0} = 6.72 \cdot 10^{10} \cdot 1.22 \cdot 10^{-4} = 8.20 \cdot 10^{6} decays/y$

Finally, we can calculate the time from equation (1):

$t = - \frac{Ln(A_{t}/A_{0})}{\lambda} = - \frac {Ln(\frac{1.02decays \cdot 24h \cdot 365d}{1h\cdot 1d \cdot 1y \cdot 8.20 \cdot 10^{6} decays/y})}{1.22 \cdot 10^{-4} y^{-1}} = 5.59 \cdot 10^{4} y$
