Carbon 14 dating? is that one of your choices

NeX [460]4 years ago

Answer:

Radiocarbon dating

Explanation:

The radiocarbon dating method is used in order to determine the age of an object (fossil) by using the unstable radioactive Carbon isotopes. It is very widely used and is efficient for dating objects that are of very recent age.

The half life of Carbon-14 is approximately 5700 years. The half life is defined as the time required to decay half of its original composition. The carbon-14 is an unstable element and after it is completely decayed, it turns into Nitrogen-14, which is a stable element.

Absorption occurs when photons from incident light hit atoms and molecules and cause them to vibrate. The more an object's molecules move and vibrate, the hotter it becomes. This heat is then emitted from the object as thermal energy.

For the following reaction, 2 SO2(g) + O:(g) 2 SO,(g) the equilibrium constant, K, is 1.32 at 627°C. What is the equilibrium con
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

1.15  

Explanation:

2SO₂ + O₂ ⟶ 2SO₃; K =1.32

SO₂ + ½O₂ ⟶ SO₃;    K₁ = ?

When you divide an equation by 2, you take the square root of its equilibrium constant.

K₁ = √1.32 = 1.15

The equilibrium constant is 1.15.

Why can you change physical properties and not make a new substance but can't change chemical properties and stay the same?
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Well this has a good chance of being wrong but i wanna say,

When you change a physical property of something it doesn't affect the chemicals that make it up. Like Ice, you can freeze water to make ice. You change a physical property (state of matter) but it's chemical properties don't change because in the end it's still water.

However if you remove a chemical property from something you are changing what made the new substance with will also change the substance along with it.

That's just what I think though
