The half-life of Th-232 is 1.405 × 10¹⁰ years  

Time elapsed = 2.8 x 10⁹ years  

Equation of radioactive decay:

A = A₀ = (1/2)^ t/t₁/₂

Thus, the percentage of thorium-232 in the rock that was dated at 2.8 billions year = 87.1%

M1v1=m2v2 
m2=(m1v1)/v2 
Where m is the molarities and v is the volumes
<span>m2=(25.0*0.500)/53.5
m2=12.5/53.5
m2=0.2336
by rounding off:
m2=0.234 M
so the answer is C: 0.234 M</span>
