Choose the FALSE statement.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mariana [72]3 years ago

Answer:

C. The half-life of C-14 is about 40,000 years.

Explanation:

The only false statement from the options is that the half-life of C-14 is 40,000yrs.

The half-life of an isotope is the time it takes for half of a radioactive material to decay to half of its original amount. C-14 has an half-life of 5730yrs. This implies that during every 5730yrs, C-14 will reduce to half of its initial amount.

  • All living organisms contain both stable C-12 and the unstable isotope of C-14
  • The lower the C-14 compared to the C-12 ratio in an organism, the older it is.

4. Why do elements in the same family generally have similar properties?
snow_tiger [21]
Because they have the same number of electrons in the outer shell, they have the same reactivity (they all want to lose/gain a certain amount of electrons to have a full shell of 8), so they have the similar melting, boiling points etc because they all undergo very similar reactions to certain factors so have similar outcomes
