As far as I know, radioactive dating is the measure of radioactive substances in a fossil or something. Like the fossils have a radioactive substance in them, it is the only thing that can show how long the fossils been aging, therefore being able to show the date. And thats how radioactive dating works, and that is how a paleontologist uses it

Hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen gas (O2) react to form liquid hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Which statement is true about the reaction?
Alja [10]
The answer is the atoms of the reactants have combined to form a new substance. Every product of a chemical equation has to be a new substance. If their is no new substance then, a chemical change never occurred and there is no chemical equation. The new substance never has the same properties as the reactants. That's why they call it a "new" substance. Also, the atoms are the ones that combine. They are not mixed
