Carbon -14 and Carbon 12 are the two substances geologists use in radiocarbon dating.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:
</u>
Radiocarbon dating denotes the determination process of the age of fossils of plants or animals based on the ratio of carbon atoms 14 to 12. Carbon naturally exists in two non-radioactive isotopes, Carbon-12 and Carbon-13 and one radioactive isotope carbon 14. The carbon 14 gets released on continuous cosmic reaction with atmospheric nitrogen.
These carbon 14 will be absorbed by the living plants and from the plants. Then, it will enter inside the animals which consume the plants. But once the plants and animals died, they ceased to intake carbon-14. In their living state, the ratios of carbon atoms 14 to 12 in them tends to similar to the ratio in atmosphere.
But after they die, the ratio of C-14 to C-12 will be varying from the ratio of C-14 to C-12 in atmosphere as the concentration of C-14 will be decreasing in the dead animals and plants. Thus using this ratio, geologists can find the fossil's age.
a minute planet; a body that could or did come together with many others under gravitation to form a planet. Planetesimals are small rock fragments that combined together to eventually form planets

Answer:
the products formed are : -
1. CaCO3 - Calcium Carbonate
2. NaCl - Sodium Chloride
Explanation:
Calcium chloride reacts with Sodium carbonate to form Calcium carbonate and Sodium chloride. this reaction is a double displacement reaction.
here's the balanced chemical equation for the above reaction : -
CaCl2 + Na2CO3 =》CaCO3 + 2 NaCl
