Chemistry
1 answer:
gregori [183]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C is the element thats has been oxidized.

Explanation:

MnO₄⁻ (aq)  +  H₂C₂O₄ (aq)  →  Mn²⁺ (aq)  +  CO₂(g)

This is a reaction where the manganese from the permanganate, it's reduced to Mn²⁺.

In the oxalic acid, this are the oxidation states:

H: +1

C: +3

O: -2

In the product side, in CO₂ the oxidation states are:

C: +4

O: -2

Carbon from the oxalate has increased the oxidation state, so it has been oxidized.

ryzh [129]

Answer:

the specimen has 11460 years old

Explanation:

if the live sample has as initial amount of Yo C14, the dead sample will have 0.25Yo of C14.

the rate of decay of radiactive matter over time is

  • Y(t) = Yo * e (( - t * Ln2 ) / T)

∴ Y(t) = 0.25Yo;  T = 5730

⇒ 0.25Yo = Yo * e (( - t * Ln2 ) / 5730 )

⇒ 0.25 = e (( - t * Ln2 ) / 5730 )

⇒ Ln(0.25) = ( -  t * Ln2 ) / 5730

⇒ - 7943.466 = - t * Ln2

⇒ 7943.466 / Ln2 = t

⇒ t = 11460 year
