Answer:

Twelve electrons

Explanation:

If we look at the product side, we will notice that iron lost twelve electrons and oxygen gained twelve electrons.

Hence, we have 4Fe^3+ and 2O3^2- showing twelve electrons lost/gained.

MArishka [77]
<span>Those characteristic belong to an ionic compountd. Ionic compounds have strong bonds between their atoms (ionic bond is the strongest molecular bond) which conferes this kind of compounds high melting point, wich 9811 K is. Ionic compounds do not transmit current, because they do not have free electrons, like metals do, then they are poor conductors as solid. Ionic compounds dissolve in water into ions which are charges that can move, becoming then good conductors. The structure of ionic compound is a net of cristals which make them hard and brittle. Then, the answer i s option (4) an ionic compound.</span>

The new fossil i.e, Fossil B (2,000 year old) contains more carbon-14 than the old fossil i.e, Fossil A (5,000 years old ) does.

<h3>What are Fossils ?</h3>

Fossils are the preserved left materials of ancient organisms in trace form.

Fossils are not just the remains of the organism But also the rocks.

Carbon 14 works to analyse the period organic remains that are between 100 years old (minimum) and about 50,000 years old, (maximum).

If it is new, than not enough time has passed for radioactive decay to produce and if it is older than that, the amount of radioactive decay has dropped so less amount which means that anything beyond 50,000 years old becomes gibberish and may lead to high or low (usually low) concentration.

Hence,the new fossil Fossil B (2,000 year old) contains more carbon-14 than the older Fossil A (5,000 years old ) does.
