The time taken by Carbon-14 to decay radioactively from 120g to 112.5g is 22,920 years.
<h3>How do we calculate the total time of decay?</h3>
Time required for the whole radioactive decay of any substance will be calculated by using the below link:
T = (n)(t), where
- t = half life time = 5730 years
- n = number of half life required for the decay
Initial mass of Carbon-14 = 120g
Final mass of Carbon-14 = 112.5g
Left mass = 120 - 112 = 7.5g
Number of required half life for this will be:
- 1: 120 → 60
- 2: 60 → 30
- 3: 30 → 15
- 4: 15 → 7.5
4 half lives are required, now on putting values we get
T = (4)(5730) = 22,920 years
Hence required time for the decay is 22,920 years.

Answer 2, because when you add salt to something, it cools faster (ex. When you add salt to an ice chest so that it stays cold) and it takes longer to boil (ex. When you boil salt out of ocean water so that its safe to drink) therefore, the more NaCl in the solution, the more it will exibit these properties
Answer:
Explanation:
a. the salt produced would be Mg3N2(magnesium nitride)
b. magnesium loses 2 electron to form Mg2+ ion and nitrogen gains 3 electron to form n3-
when several of these ions come together 3 Mg2+ ion combine with 2 n3- ion to form Mg3N2 thus Mg getting six electron from nitrogen to form a ionic bond.
c. the reaction is not balanced Mg + N2 = Mg3n2
to make it balanced the reaction should be 3 Mg + N2 = Mg3N2.
the reaction was not balanced before because the number of Mg on both side of the reaction was not equal.
d. magnesium nitrate has formula Mg(NO3)2 is formed when Mg combines with nitrogen and oxygen Mg + N2 + o2
