The reaction that would beat represent a typical reaction mechanism is when A and B react with each other to produce certain products.
The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the external pressure surrounding the liquid. Therefore, the boiling point of a liquid depends on atmospheric pressure.
The age of the fossil given the present amount of Carbon-14 is given in the equation,
A(t) = A(o)(0.5)^t/h
where A(t) is the current amount, A(o) is the initial amount, t is time and h is the half-life. Substituting the known values to the equation,
A(t) / A(o) = 0.125 = (0.5)^(t/5730)
The value of t from the equation is 17190.
Thus, the age of the fossil is mostly likely to be 17190 years old.
If the hydrate gets too hot it could start splattering and cause a loss of sample.
D = m / V
D = 2790 g / 205 mL
D = 13.60 g/mL
