sasho [114]3 years ago
7 0

The answers are

The age of the oldest stars

How fast distant galaxies are moving away from us

Patterns of background radiation.

Explanation:

The Astronomers calculate the age of the universe by looking for oldest stars, and by measuring the rate of expansion of the universe and back to big bang.

The Astronomers used the techniques like the age of oldest stars, how fast the distant galaxies are moving away from us, patterns of background radiation and along with the Big Bang as reference point, they estimate that the universe may be approximately 12 billion years old.

Which activity might help to increase the validity of this experiment?
MArishka [77]
A should be the answer because the more you test an experiment the more data you have to rely on changing the experiment would cause you to have different outcomes making the results different and unreliable so B, C, and D is not going to be the answer Hope this helps

What is the connection between diamonds and stardust?
Ede4ka [16]

According to an article dated back in February 8, 1992 which is entitled, “Science: Stardust is made of diamonds” on a website called newscientist (https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg13318073-000-science-stardust-is-made-of-diamonds/), American astronomers believed that diamonds are made in supernova explosions. It was said that the diamonds were the foundation of uncommon combinations of isotopes found in some meteorites. Donald Clayton of Clemson University in South Carolina suggested that the weightiest isotopes were more common in meteorites for the reason that the rare gases shaped in the neutron-rich outcome of a supernova explosion. Clayton also said, “the observed mixture of isotopes could have been produced only during the collapse of a massive star to form a neutron star”. This happens in a Type II explosion, for example the Supernova 1987A in the Large Magellanic Cloud. And rare gases like xenon become stuck in both weighty and light isotopes after the ejected gas from such a supernova cools down enough to create dust. The existence of the diamonds with these unusual gases in meteorites infers an alike source. Some of the carbon in the supernova fragments produces ordinary graphite dust, whereas some produces diamond dust. Considerable amount of stardust may be made of diamonds, if Clayton was not mistaken.

What is the mass of 2.542 × 1026 atoms of F?
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

7.98 × 10^3grams.

Explanation:

To find the mass of fluorine in the number of atoms provided, we first divide the number of atoms by Avagadros number (6.02 × 10^23atoms) to get the number of moles in the fluorine atom. That is;

number of moles (n) = number of atoms (nA) ÷ 6.02 × 10^23 atoms

n = 2.542 × 10^26 ÷ 6.02 × 10^23

n = 0.42 × 10^ (26-23)

n = 0.42 × 10^3

n = 4.2 × 10^2moles

Using mole = mass ÷ molar mass

Molar/atomic mass of fluorine (F) = 19g/mol

mass = molar mass × mole

Mass (g) = 19 × 4.2 × 10^2

Mass = 79.8 × 10^2

Mass = 7.98 × 10^3grams.
