Half life is the time taken for a radioactive isotope to decay by half its original mass. In this case the half life of carbon-14 is 5.730 years.
Using the formula;
New mass = original mass × (1/2)^n; where n is the number of half lives (in this case n=1 )
New mass = 2 g × (1/2)^1
= 1 g
Therefore; the mass of carbon-14 that remains will be 1 g
Answer:
Using the coarse adjustment knob of the microscope in high power may lead to the breaking of the slide if adjusted and raised the slide too much which can damage the sample as well as the high power lens.
In this case, I would recommend using the fine adjustment knob and moving away from the end of the viewing area of the microscope so there would no collision take place. The fine adjustment will help to get a clear image.
Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
According to Bronsted-Lowry, species which donate a proton are known as acid. The species which accept a proton are known as a base.
In the given reaction, acids and bases are as follows.
HI +
+ 
Acid Base Conjugate acid Conjugate base
Therefore, the acid HI loses a proton to form a conjugate base that is
.
Thus, we can conclude that HI and
is an acid conjugate base pair.
Phenolphthalein
In acid it is colourless and in water also colourless
