Answer:
Increasing the surface area of the reactants
Explanation:
An increase in surface area of the reactant will always cause an increase in the rate of reaction. This is so because, an increase in the surface area of the reactant will cause the reactant particles to collide effectively thereby bringing about an increase in the reaction rate.
Collision theory suggests that for a reaction to occur, the reactant particles must collide with the right orientation. As the surface area of the reactants are increased, the reactants particles collide more with the right orientation bringing about definite increase in the rate of reaction.
The radioactive decay obeys first order kinetics
the rate law expression for radioactive decay is
![ln\frac{[A_{0}]}{[A_{t}]}=kt](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=ln%5Cfrac%7B%5BA_%7B0%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BA_%7Bt%7D%5D%7D%3Dkt)
Where
A0 = initial concentration
At = concentration after time "t"
t = time
k = rate constant
For first order reaction the relation between rate constant and half life is:

Let us calculate k
k = 0.693 / 72 = 0.009625 years⁻¹
Given
At = 0.25 A0

time = 144 years
So after 144 years the sample contains 25% parent isotope and 75% daughter isotopes**
Simply two half lives

I think the answer will be b cuh
they could be different types of minerals, so one reacted to the energy differently than the other one. and pls answer my latest questions its due by 11:59 pm TONIGHT or i get kicked out of school.. pls help..
