Answer:
Coefficient
Explanation:
Chemical equation:
aA + bB → dD
This equation shows that reaction is balanced by coefficient q,b and d.
Reactant coefficients Product Coefficient
A a D d
B b
Every balanced equation follow the law of conservation of mass.
Law of conservation of mass:
According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.
Explanation:
This law was given by french chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
For example:
In given photosynthesis reaction:
6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass. The numbers 6 with CO₂, 6 with H₂O and 6 with O₂ are coefficient which balance the equation.
<u>Given:</u>
Initial amount of carbon, A₀ = 16 g
Decay model = 16exp(-0.000121t)
t = 90769076 years
<u>To determine:</u>
the amount of C-14 after 90769076 years
<u>Explanation:</u>
The radioactive decay model can be expressed as:
A = A₀exp(-kt)
where A = concentration of the radioactive species after time t
A₀ = initial concentration
k = decay constant
Based on the given data :
A = 16 * exp(-0.000121*90769076) = 16(0) = 0
Ans: Based on the decay model there will be no C-14 left after 90769076 years
Diamond are the hardest Pure form of carbon.
It is tasteless and colorless.
