There should be a sufficient amount of the selected isotope in the rock.

The half-life of the isotope must be long enough to capture the age of the rock.

Explanation:

Sully must consider two main aspect before selecting her choice isotope for dating.

There must be sufficient amount of the selected isotope in the rock.

The half - life of the isotope must be long enough to capture the age of the rock.

Radiometric dating gives a rock an absolute numerical age.
The half-life of an isotope is time take for half of a radioactive element to decay.
If the half-life of an isotope is very short, all the parent nuclide would have turned to daughter nuclides.
Also, we must have sufficient amount of both the daughter and parent isotope in the selected rock.

A covalent bond in which electrons are shared unequally is

tekilochka [14]

Covalent bonds = sharing of electrons between two atoms of the same elements or elements close to each other on the periodic table. Usually they are metals sometimes non-metals. In polar bonds electrons are shared unequally. Non polar bonds share electrons equally.

a) What substances are present in an aqueous buffer composed of HC2H3O2 and C2H3O2 - ?b) What happens when LiOH is added to a bu

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

a) HC₂H₃O₂, C₂H₃O₂⁻, H₃O⁺, H₂O, OH⁻

b) HC₂H₃O₂ + LiOH ⇄ H₂O + LiC₂H₃O₂

c) C₂H₃O₂⁻ + HBr ⇄ HC₂H₃O₂ + Br⁻

Explanation:

a) In a HC₂H₃O₂/C₂H₃O₂⁻ buffer system, the following reactions take place:

HC₂H₃O₂ + H₂O ⇄ C₂H₃O₂⁻ + H₃O⁺

C₂H₃O₂⁻ + H₂O ⇄ HC₂H₃O₂ + OH⁻

Thus, the species present are: HC₂H₃O₂, C₂H₃O₂⁻, H₃O⁺, H₂O, OH⁻.

b) When LiOH is added to the buffer system, it is partially neutralized according to the following equation.

HC₂H₃O₂ + LiOH ⇄ H₂O + LiC₂H₃O₂

c) When HBr is added to the buffer system, it is partially neutralized according to the following equation.

C₂H₃O₂⁻ + HBr ⇄ HC₂H₃O₂ + Br⁻

A sample of a certain lead compound contains 12.92 g of lead for 2 g of oxygen. A second sample has mass of 34.27 g and contains

Elis [28]

The two chemical compounds are not the same, because their ratio is not equal. In both samples the composition of lead and oxygen is different.

<h3>What is a chemical compound?</h3>

A chemical compound is a substance made of numerous similar molecules (or molecular entities) joined by chemical bonds and comprising atoms from various chemical elements. Therefore, a molecule made up of only one type of atom is not a compound. Chemical reactions, which may entail interactions with other molecules, can change a compound into a distinct substance. Atomic bonds may be broken or new ones created during this process.

<h3>What are the calculations?</h3>

sample 1 = mass of lead / mass of oxygen = 12.92g/2g = 6.46 .

sample 2 = mass of lead/ mass of oxygen = 34.27 - 14.39/14.39 = 1.38 .

so, the ratios are not the same.

Hence, the two chemical compounds are not the same, because their ratio is not equal. In both samples the composition of lead and oxygen is different.
