Answer: An atom can be considered unstable in one of two ways. If it picks up or loses an electron, it becomes electrically charged and highly reactive. Such electrically charged atoms are known as ions. Instability can also occur in the nucleus when the number of protons and neutrons is unbalanced.
Explanation:
The Half life is the time taken for a radioisotope or a radioactive substance to decay by half its original amount. The half life of carbon 14 is 5600 years.
Original mass is 100%
Remaining amount is 24%
Therefore; 0.24 = 1 × (1/2)^n
n = log 0.24/log 0.5
= 2.06
therefore, the age of the fossil is 5600×2.06
= 11529.8
≈ 11529 years
Water moved through the water cycle by changing its state. Think, for example, of water evaporating (liquid to gas), snow sublimating (solid to gas) or melting (solid to liquid), rain (gas to liquid), sleet (liquid to solid), or snow (gas to solid).
The answer would thus be A.
That's because <span>the specific heat capacity of water is higher than specific heat capacity of iron, meaning that the water would need to lose more heat energy to drop its temperature.</span>
According to markovnikov's rule of the electrophilic addition to an alkene, the electrophile, usually a proton, is more likely to add to the less-substituted carbon in a double bond.
With additional substituents present in this configuration, the intermediate carbocation is stabilised by being located on the more-substituted carbon.
The nucleophile will then end up in a double bond on the more-substituted carbon in a reaction that follows Markovnikov's rule.The outcome of some addition reactions is described by Markovnikov's rule or Markownikoff's rule in organic chemistry. Vladimir Markovnikov, a Russian scientist, created the rule in 1870.
