<h2>
Answer: U-238</h2>
Explanation:
Let's begin by explaining that for radioactive geological dating (also called radioisotope dating) in which radioactive impurities were selectively incorporated when the fossil materials were formed, it is very useful to compare it with a naturally occurring radioisotope having a known half-life.
Now, taking into account that the <u>fossils are millions and millions of years old, radioisotopes are needed that exceed this measure.
</u>
To understand it better:
The longer the half-life of a radioisotope, the greater its utility for estimating fossil ages or geological formations.
In this sense, uranium-238 (U238) has a half-life of 4,470 million years, therefore, it is among the most commonly used radioisotopes for fossil and geological dating.
Answer:
I guess that the atoms are:
Protons: 6 8 5 2 12 12
Neutrons: 8 8 5 3 13 14
Now, two atoms are isotopes if they share the same number of protons (so both atoms are the same element) but they have a different number of neutrons.
From the given options, the only two that have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons are:
Protons 12, neutrons 13
and
Protons 12, neutrons 14.
These two are isiotopes.

Answer:
8.829 m/s²
Explanation:
M = Mass of Earth
m = Mass of Exoplanet
= Acceleration due to gravity on Earth = 9.81 m/s²
g = Acceleration due to gravity on Exoplanet



Dividing the equations we get

Acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Exoplanet is 8.829 m/s²
