Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

AT = A0 e(-T/H)

... where A0 is the starting activity, AT is the activity at some time T, and H is the half-life, in units of T.

Substituting what we know, we get...

0.71 = (1) e(-T/5730)

Solve for T...

loge(0.71) = -T/5730

T = -loge(0.71)(5730)

T = 1962 (conservatively rounded, T = 2000)

similarly for all

for aboriginal charcoal

0.28 = (1) e(-T/5730)

Solve for T...

loge(0.28) = -T/5730

T = -loge(0.28)(5730)

T = 7294 (conservatively rounded, T = 7000)

for mayan headdress

0.89 = (1) e(-T/5730)

Solve for T...

loge(0.89) = -T/5730

T = -loge(0.89)(5730)

T = 667 (conservatively rounded, T = 700)

for neanderthal

0.05 = (1) e(-T/5730)

Solve for T...

loge(0.05) = -T/5730

T = -loge(0.05)(5730)

T = 17165 (conservatively rounded, T = 17000)

A chemist determines by measurements that 0.030 moles of nitrogen gas participate in a chemical reaction. calculate the mass of
zzz [600]
Remember that: 
number of moles = mass/molar mass

First, we get the molar mass of the nitrogen gas molecule:
It is known the the nitrogen gas is composed of two nitrogen atoms, each with molar mass 14 gm (from the periodic table)
Therefore, molar mass of nitrogen gas = 14 x 2 = 28 gm

Second we calculate the mass of the precipitate:
we have number of moles = 0.03 moles (given)
and molar mass = 28 gm (calculated)
Using the equation mentioned before,
mass = number of moles x molar mass = 0.03 x 28 = 0.84 gm

What information is provided by absolute dating that cannot be provided by relative dating
kiruha [24]
Relative dating is the process of determining whether an object or event is older or younger than other objects or events. Absolute dating is d<span>etermining the age of an event or object in years. From absolute dating, the real age of the object is obtained which is not present for relative dating. Hope this helps.</span>

Describe the valence electrons in nitrogen and how it could bond to other atoms.
Trava [24]

Answer:

Each nitrogen molecule consists of two atoms of nitrogen that are bonded by a triple covalent bond. This is a direct consequence of the fact that each nitrogen atom has 5 valence electrons. Each atom can thus complete its octet by sharing three electrons.
