Explain about a method in which a scientist could use fossils to determine the age of the soil in which the fossils were found

Chemistry
1 answer:
Neko [114]3 years ago
3 0
The method scientists could use is radiocarbon dating. This method involves the analysis of a specific type of carbon atom in fossils. Carbon 14 is radioactive and has a half-life of approximately 5730 years. By measuring the amount of carbon 14 left in a sample scientist should be able to determine the approximate time when the soil was laid down.

Match each species on the left to a description on the right.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

I₂ + 2 e = 2I⁻

I₂ converts itself into I⁻ by accepting electron . In this process it increases the oxidation number of element from which it takes electron . Hence it is an oxidizing agent .

Similarly O₂ is also an oxidizing agent .

O₂ + 4e = 2O⁻²

Al is a reducing agent .

Al = Al⁺³ + 3 e

Al gives 3 electrons to other element whose oxidation number is reduced . Hence it is reducing agent .

Similarly Cr is also a reducing agent .

Cr = Cr⁺³ + 3 e .
