<span>Answer: Some metals have the ability to form differently charged ions. For example, iron can form 2 + or 3 + ions. If you simply gave the name iron chloride, you would not know which charge the iron ion possessed. A Roman numeral is to indicate the charge of the iron. Iron ( II ) means the iron has a 2 + charge Iron ( III ) means that the iron has a 3 + charge So, iron ( II ) oxide would have a chemical formula of FeO . (The oxide ion has a 2 â’ charge to balance the 2 + of the iron to form a neutral compound.) Iron ( III ) oxide would have a chemical formula of Fe 2 O 3 (Here you need to find the common multiple of 6, so two iron ions with a 3 + charge will balance the charge of three oxide ions with a 2 + charge.)</span>

Fossil A is estimated to be 5,000 years old and fossil B is estimated to be 2,000 year old. If the two fossils had the same amou

The new fossil i.e, Fossil B (2,000 year old) contains more carbon-14 than the old fossil i.e, Fossil A (5,000 years old ) does.

<h3>What are Fossils ?</h3>

Fossils are the preserved left materials of ancient organisms in trace form.

Fossils are not just the remains of the organism But also the rocks.

Carbon 14 works to analyse the period organic remains that are between 100 years old (minimum) and about 50,000 years old, (maximum).

If it is new, than not enough time has passed for radioactive decay to produce and if it is older than that, the amount of radioactive decay has dropped so less amount which means that anything beyond 50,000 years old becomes gibberish and may lead to high or low (usually low) concentration.

Hence,the new fossil Fossil B (2,000 year old) contains more carbon-14 than the older Fossil A (5,000 years old ) does.
