Carbon -14 and Carbon 12 are the two substances geologists use in radiocarbon dating.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:
</u>
Radiocarbon dating denotes the determination process of the age of fossils of plants or animals based on the ratio of carbon atoms 14 to 12. Carbon naturally exists in two non-radioactive isotopes, Carbon-12 and Carbon-13 and one radioactive isotope carbon 14. The carbon 14 gets released on continuous cosmic reaction with atmospheric nitrogen.
These carbon 14 will be absorbed by the living plants and from the plants. Then, it will enter inside the animals which consume the plants. But once the plants and animals died, they ceased to intake carbon-14. In their living state, the ratios of carbon atoms 14 to 12 in them tends to similar to the ratio in atmosphere.
But after they die, the ratio of C-14 to C-12 will be varying from the ratio of C-14 to C-12 in atmosphere as the concentration of C-14 will be decreasing in the dead animals and plants. Thus using this ratio, geologists can find the fossil's age.
A. The longest carbon chain is eight, and it has two methyl groups attached to carbon three, and a special group attached to carbon five. Its two names could be:
3-dimethyl-5-(1-methylethyl)octane
3-dimethyl-5-isopropyloctane
Both of these are correct. This is an alkane, because it has all single bonds.
B. This has a triple bond contained between carbons 2 and 3, and has a methyl group off carbon 4. The longest chain is 5. It’s name is:
4-methyl-2-pentyne
This is an alkene, because of the double bond.
C. This has a double bond contained between carbons 2 and 3, and has a methyl off of four and an methyl off of six. The longest chain is eight (follow the longest chain of carbons).
4,6-dimethyl-2-octene
This is an alkene, because of the double bond.
D. This has an ethyl group at 1 and a methyl group at 2 (rotate the compound to make it as clean as possible, in this case, the ring is flipped and rotated to make it alphabetical with the smallest numbers possible). The two names are:
1-ethyl-2-methylbenzene
ortho-ethylmethylbenzene
Both are correct, the ortho prefix telling the location of the ethyl and methyl groups. This is an aromatic structure because of its double bonded ring.
E. The longest chain is nine, and has methyls at three, five, and seven, along with a propyl at five. The name is:
3,5,7-trimethyl-5-propylnonane
This is an alkane, due to the single bonds.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
17. D. Chemical change
18. C. Cell wall
19. D. To transfer matter and energy within and between organisms.
20. A. Transporting materials
21. C. Carbon dioxide
22. A. Cellular respiration
23. C. Produce food and give off oxygen
Explanation:
I have been able to supply the correct answers. The cell wall functions as a structure that provides structural support and protection to the cell. It is tough, flexible and at times rigid. In a chemical change, new materials with new properties are manufactured. So, the process of photosynthesis is a chemical change.
The endoplasmic reticulum actually transports material. It transports materials like protein and lipids made within the cell and sends it to where they are needed.
Carbon dioxide is the the gas that animals give off and plants use it during photosynthesis. Cellular respiration involves the activities that result to the breaking down of food in order to release energy.
