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.

Answer:
The proton gradient produced by proton pumping during the electron transport chain is used to synthesize ATP. Protons flow down their concentration gradient into the matrix through the membrane protein ATP synthase, causing it to spin (like a water wheel) and catalyze conversion of ADP to ATP.
- Endothermic reaction : so the energy of product is higher than the energy of reactant.
- Catalyst lowers the activation energy so it increase the rate of reaction.
- The graph is attached:
Answer:
In the presence of UV light, ethane will react with bromine in a substitution reaction. UV light is the condition under which the reaction will occur so it is written above the arrow in the chemical equation. As the reaction proceeds, the intensity of the re-brown colour of the bromine water decreases.
