Answer: Option (1) and (3)

Explanation: Radiometric dating is a very efficient method of dating a rock or fossil or any object. It helps in determining the estimated age of that particular object.

The half-life of all the radioactive methods are already known, so it becomes easy to determine how much decay an object has undergone. So by knowing the rate at which the decay occurs, one can find out the approximate age by using the radioactive decay formula.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1) and (3).

mote1985 [20]

The right answer is the activation energy.

The catalyst increases the reaction rate by introducing new reaction paths (mechanism), and lowering its activation energy, or activation Gibbs free energy. By doing this it can increase the speed, or lower the temperature of the reaction. It is important to note that the catalyst does not alter the total Gibbs free energy of the reaction which is a system state function and therefore has no effect on the equilibrium constant.
