Answer:

12.5%

Explanation:

Initial percentage of carbon 14 = 100%

Final percentage = ?

Time passed = 17.1 * 1000 years = 17100 years

Half life of carbon 14 = 5,730 years.

So how many Half lives are in 17100 years?

Number of Half lives = Time passed /  Half life = 3.18 ≈ 3

First Half life;

100% --> 50%

Second Half life;

50% --> 25%

Third Half life ;

25% --> 12.5%

Answer:

Ice cubes, glass of tea, and butter

Explanation:

Like it said in the hint, the molecules will only speed up if they gain heat. This means in order for the object to heat up it will have to have a temperature that is less than the temperature in the room. Ice cubes, glass of tea, and butter are the three objects that have a temperature less than 72 degrees so when they are placed in the 72 degrees room they will heat gain heat (therefore making the molecules move faster)
