We are given the following equation:

y = y0 e^-0.0001216 t

where y = 1/5 y0, y0 is the original amount

So solving for time t:

1/5 y0= y0 e^-0.0001216 t

t = 13,235.51 years

 

So the human died about 13235.5 years ago

The molecule CO2 is arranged in a linear molecular geometry. TRUE FALSE
antiseptic1488 [7]

I would say true because the Valence Shell Electron Pairs will Repel each other. When they do they are forced to the opposite side of the Carbon atom giving CO2 a linear molecular shape. The CO2 bond angle will be 180 degrees since it has a linear molecular geometry.

Explain how melting points are used to identify compounds and determine purity. g\
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer: melting points are major means of identifying pure compounds.

Explanation:

A pure compound can be identified by its melting point because, a pure compound will have a sharp melting point while an impure compound will melt over a temperature range. If presented with a pure sample of an unknown solid, its melting point can tell us what the identity of the compound. Similarly, melting point analysis can show the purity of a known solid. If the known solid has a sharp melting point, then it is pure.
