The answer is indeed carbon dating, but let me explain it to you a little bit better: This is so because Carbon dating is the method that has the determination of the age of an organic matter. That is why we can say that that uses a mathematical equation and the half-life of decay to determine the exact date of a fossil. Hope this clarifies everything

Phoenix [80]
Because the formation of rust is a kind of chemistry reaction.
After chemistry reaction, compound with new properties is produced.
Of course, color is one of the new properties.
For example, if you put iron in colorless acid solution, a green solution is made.
This kind of chemisty reaction differs from physical reaction, for example, pigment with one color dissolves in liquid, a liquid with same color is made.

Among the following options, a valid Lewis structure of __________ cannot be drawn without violating the octet rule.
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

d. IF3

Explanation:

The Octet rule posits that atoms gain, atom lose, or share electrons in order to have a full valence shell of 8 electrons. This statement occurs when atoms also combine to form molecules until they attain or share eight valence electrons either by losing or gaining eletrons.

From the given options, a valid Lewis structure that cannot be drawn without violating the octet rule is IF3

Which class of compounds contains only carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen?
Likurg_2 [28]
<h2>Answer: </h2>

Nitrogen forms many thousands of organic compounds. Most of the known varieties may be regarded as derived from ammonia, hydrogen cyanide, cyanogen, and nitrous or nitric acid. The amines, amino acids, and amides, for example, are derived from or closely related to ammonia.

<h3>Explanation: </h3>

A carbohydrate has only Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen, with the hydrogen and oxygen in the ratio 2:1.

Examples are glucose C6H12O6 and table sugar C12H22O11

A protein is made of amino acids. Amino acids have an amino group which is −NH2.  

So without nitrogen atoms the compound cannot be a protein.

Nucleic acids are organic compounds that contain carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen but they also contains phosphorus and oxygen. They are made of smaller units called nucleotides.

So;

Simple Amines are the class of organic compounds that only contains Carbon, Hydrogen and Nitrogen.

3. Describe what happens to chemical bonds as a chemical reaction is taking place.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

1. In a chemical reaction, the atoms and molecules that interact with each other are called reactants. ... No new atoms are created, and no atoms are destroyed. In a chemical reaction, reactants contact each other, bonds between atoms in the reactants are broken, and atoms rearrange and form new bonds to make the products.

2. Given below are some of the examples of the chemical reactions in our daily life:

Photosynthesis.

Combustion.

Aerobic cellular respiration.

Anaerobic respiration including the process fermentation.

Metathesis reactions, for example, vinegar and baking soda.

Oxidation which includes rusting.

Digestion.

3. A chemical formula is the combination of atomic symbols that designate a particular chemical compound, or a substance with two or more different elements. ... A chemical equation shows one or more chemical compounds (reactants) being converted into different chemical species called products.
