Geologists commonly use radiometric dating methods , based on the natural radioactive decay of certain elements such as potassium and carbon , as reliable clocks to date ancient events .
The wrong one is
<span>radioactive half-life is increased by heating the isotope.</span>
Hello!
The half-life is the time of half-disintegration, it is the time in which half of the atoms of an isotope disintegrate.
We have the following data:
mo (initial mass) = 43 g
m (final mass after time T) = ? (in g)
x (number of periods elapsed) = ?
P (Half-life) = 20 minutes
T (Elapsed time for sample reduction) = 80 minutes
Let's find the number of periods elapsed (x), let us see:
Now, let's find the final mass (m) of this isotope after the elapsed time, let's see:
I Hope this helps, greetings ... DexteR! =)

You would first balance GO4 by adding a coefficient of 3 in front of DnGO4 in the reactants. Then you’d balance the 3DnGO4 by adding a coefficient of 3 in front of Dn in the products. Finally you’d balance Eg by adding a coefficient of 2 in front of Eg to balance with the Eg2(GO4)3 in the products.
