4. Why is radiocarbon measurement useless when trying to measure things that died

Chemistry
1 answer:
julsineya [31]3 years ago

Answer:

Radiocarbon measurement or radiocarbon dating is a method that is used to measure the age of the carbon-based material in living organisms.

Radiocarbon dating is able to estimate age of fossils that are younger than 50,000 years and unable to measure things that died longer than 200,000 years ago because fossils that are too old do not contain carbon or carbon get vanished from too old fossils of organisms. Some of the fossils also get contaminated due to environmental conditions and during teh collection or preservation process.

Thus,  radiocarbon measurement is useless when trying to measure most rocks older than 50,000 years.

What do all the elements in one row of the periodio fable have in common?
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Energy levels

Explanation:

Elements in one row of the periodic table have the same energy levels. A row on the periodic table is the horizontal arrangement of elements. These rows are called periods.

There are 7 periods on the periodic table.

  • Each elements on a period begins with an atom having one valence electrons and then ending with completely filled orbitals.
  • Elements in the same period are known to have the same electronic shells which is the energy level.
  • The principal quantum number of their electrons is the same.

Answer:How many ions are in 2 moles of NaCl?

2 mol NaCl = 2 x 6.02 x 10 23 = 1.204 x 10 24 NaCl formula units 2 mol NaCl = 2 (2 x 6.02 x 10 23 )= 2 (1.204 x 10 24) = 2.408 x 10 24 atoms *2 moles of sodium chloride contains 2.408 x 10 24 ions (combination of Na + ions & Cl – ions). H
