The answer is 3). This is because elements are the simplest form of a substance, and cannot be broken down any further. Compounds on the other hand are much more complex than elements and can be broken down INTO elements. For example, Na, sodium, is an element and cannot be broken down further. H2O, water, is a compound and can be broken down into Hydrogen and Oxygen.

What is the pH of a solution with a H+ ion of 2×10-¹²?​
kap26 [50]

Carbon-14 is a radioactive isotope that decays according to first-order kinetics in a process that has a half-life of 5730 years
Sliva [168]

Answer : The time passed in years is 2.83\times 10^3\text{ years}

Explanation :

Half-life = 5730 years

First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :

k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}

k=\frac{0.693}{5730\text{ years}}

k=1.21\times 10^{-4}\text{ years}^{-1}

Now we have to calculate the time passed.

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  = 1.21\times 10^{-4}\text{ years}^{-1}

t = time passed by the sample  = ?

a = let initial amount of the reactant  = X g

a - x = amount left after decay process = 71\% \times (x)=\frac{71}{100}\times (X)=0.71Xg

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

t=\frac{2.303}{1.21\times 10^{-4}}\log\frac{X}{0.71X}

t=2831.00\text{ years}=2.83\times 10^3\text{ years}

Therefore, the time passed in years is 2.83\times 10^3\text{ years}
