Wood deposits recovered from an archaeological site contain 36% of the C-14 they originally contained. How long ago did the tree
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer: It was obtained 8515 years ago

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process  

a) to find the rate constant:

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}

k=\frac{0.693}{5760}=0.00012years^{-1}

b) for completion of 36% of reaction

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{100}{36}

t=\frac{2.303}{0.00012}\log\frac{100}{36}

t = 8515 years

The time was 8515 years.

2. Right ventricle -  pumps oxygen-poor blood to the heart.

3. Left atrium - receive oxygen - rich blood from the  lungs.

4. Left ventricle - pumps oxygen rich blood to the body.

The heart is a muscular organ. It is about the size of a closed fist. It is located in the thoracic cavity. It is protected by the rib cage and is the major organ of the circulatory system.
