Carbon-14 is an isotope used in carbon dating. The nucleus becomes Nitrogen-14 through beta decay. Its half-life is 5370 years.

We can use this information to think about the large sample of 14C that is part of all organic matter. We can also think about the fate of a single 14C nucleus, as we did above. a) What information does the half-life give you for a given large sample of 14C nuclei

Answer:

If the half-life of 14C is 5730 years, when this period of time has passed it will have been halved, it is called the exponential decay law of radioactive isotopes.

average atomic mass of Cu = 63.54

Explanation:

average atomic mass =  atomic mass of isotope 1 × abundance of isotope 1 + atomic mass of isotope 2 × abundance of isotope 2 +...+ atomic mass of isotope n × abundance of isotope n

average atomic mass of Cu = atomic mass of Cu-63 × abundance of isotope Cu-63 + atomic mass of isotope Cu-65 × abundance of isotope Cu-65

average atomic mass of Cu = 62.93 × (69.17 / 100) + 64.93 × (30.83 / 100)

average atomic mass of Cu = 63.54

Which of the following is not a postulate of the kinetic-molecular theory? A. Gas particles have a high force of attraction to o
PolarNik [594]
<span>Following are important postulates of Kinetic theory of gases

1) Gases are made up of number of particles. 
this particles  behaves like hard and spherical objects, which are in constant state of motion.
2)  The particles always travel in a straight line until they collide with another particle or the walls of the container.
3) Particles are of smaller size as compared to the distance between particles.
4) There exist minimal/no force of attraction between the gas particles neither there exist attractive interaction between the particles and the walls of the container.
5) Collisions between gas particles or with the walls of the container are  elastic in nature. 

Thus, statement a i.e. </span><span>Gas particles have a high force of attraction to one another or to the walls of the container contradicts the postulates of kinetic theory of gases</span>
