In living things, the source of the carbon-14 that is used in radiocarbon dating is carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Living things inhale oxygen, and exhale carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which is why the air and atmosphere are so full of it.

When collecting your solid, why should the filter paper in the Buchner funnel be wetted with some of the cold recrystallization
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:   It is important to wet the filter paper in the Buchner funnel first with cold re crystallization solvent before the re crystallization mixture being filtered to minimize gaps around the edges of the filter paper which can prevent mechanical impurities from passing through. This gives better filtration where most impurities can be filtered. Furthermore, it provides good vacuum.

Determine the empirical formula of a
k0ka [10]

Answer:

AuCl

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Gold  = 2.6444g

Mass of Chlorine  = 0.476g

Unknown:

Empirical formula  = ?

Solution:

Empirical formula is the simplest formula of a compound. Here is the way of determining this formula.

Elements                                     Au                                             Cl

Mass                                         2.6444                                     0.476

Molar mass                                 197                                          35.5

Number of moles                  2.6444/197                                 0.476/35.5

                                                 0.013                                           0.013

Divide by the

smallest                                 0.013/0.013                                 0.013/0.013

                                                       1                                                   1

The empirical formula of the compound is AuCl

amid [387]
<span>As mentioned, the isomerization of cyclopropane to propylene is a first-order process with a half-life of 19 min at 500°c. A first-order reaction kinetic rates means that the rate is constant throughout the reaction.

Thus, the time it takes for the partial pressure of cyclopropane to decrease from 1 atm to 0.125 atm at 500°c is </span><span>57 minutes.</span>

which soil indicated on the soil triangle above would most likely have the highest water-holding capacity?
lbvjy [14]

The soil with the highest water-holding capacity in the triangle must be a soil that has a very high percentage of clay soil.

The question is incomplete but I will try to help you the much I can. There are different kinds of soil such as;

  • Sandy soil
  • Loamy soil
  • Clay soil
  • Silt Soil

The water holding capacity of the various kinds of soil are different. The soil with the least water holding capacity is sandy soil while the soil with the greatest water holding capacity is clay soil.

Hence, the soil with the highest water-holding capacity in the triangle must be a soil that has a very high percentage of clay soil.
