Carbon -14 and Carbon 12 are the two substances geologists use in radiocarbon dating.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:
</u>
Radiocarbon dating denotes the determination process of the age of fossils of plants or animals based on the ratio of carbon atoms 14 to 12. Carbon naturally exists in two non-radioactive isotopes, Carbon-12 and Carbon-13 and one radioactive isotope carbon 14. The carbon 14 gets released on continuous cosmic reaction with atmospheric nitrogen.
These carbon 14 will be absorbed by the living plants and from the plants. Then, it will enter inside the animals which consume the plants. But once the plants and animals died, they ceased to intake carbon-14. In their living state, the ratios of carbon atoms 14 to 12 in them tends to similar to the ratio in atmosphere.
But after they die, the ratio of C-14 to C-12 will be varying from the ratio of C-14 to C-12 in atmosphere as the concentration of C-14 will be decreasing in the dead animals and plants. Thus using this ratio, geologists can find the fossil's age.
The answer is 6 because the number of chlorine is 2 so if you have 6 moles of chlorine the answer is 6
D, the more liquid there is, the less the temperature will be affected
It would definitely be hand lense
Answer:
Francium (Fr)
Explanation:
From the given choices, francium will have the lowest ionization energy.
Ionization energy is the energy required to remove the most loosely held electron within an atom.
The magnitude of the ionization energy depends on the characteristics of the atom in relation to its nuclear charge, atomic radius, stability etc.
- Generally on the periodic table, ionization energy increases from left to right on the table
- As you go from metals to non-metals and to gases, the value of the ionization energy increases steadily.
- Down the group, the value reduces.
- Since Francium is the most metallic of all the given choices, it has the highest ionization energy.
