One major lab accident was of fire where gases were exposed to heat.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Accidents that occur in the laboratory which lead to some mishappening are known as the lab accidents. The reasons for such accidents may be many like fire, chemical spills, personal injuries and so on. To avoid all this, there should be proper check and focus while working in the lab.
One of the major lab accidents was of the fire when gas was exposed to heat. The chemical involved in this accident was the use of methane. The type of personal protective equipment worn at the time of accident was protective eye-wear and the lab coat and the lab gloves. To avoid such kind of accidents, people in lab should be very careful and it should be made sure that there are proper equipment in case of any mishap.
As scientists drill the sample they bring up is. Called a core sample
Answer:
I am not certain but I think carbohydrate
The half-life of Carbon-14 is 5760 years.
<span>For carbon-14 to have decayed down by a factor of 12, we know between 3 and 4 half-lives must have elapsed. Since 4 half-lives is only 23,000 years, the sample is considerably younger than a dinosaur bone. (Unless we assume it's been contaminated with modern carbon, in which case, any age calculation based on carbon-14 is worthless.) </span>
<span>The decay equation is y = ae^(-0.0856t) with t in days. </span>
<span>To find the half-life, we solve for t such that y/a = 0.5. </span>
<span>0.5 = e^(-0.0856t) </span>
<span>Take natural logs of both sides: </span>
<span>-ln(2) = -0.0856t </span>
<span>-0.6931 = -0.0856t </span>
<span>Divide both sides by -0.0856... </span>
<span>8.096 = t </span>
<span>The half-life is 8.096 days.</span>
