Both make up an atom, along with protons =)
I hope I helped! ^-^
<h2>
Answer: U-238</h2>
Explanation:
Let's begin by explaining that for radioactive geological dating (also called radioisotope dating) in which radioactive impurities were selectively incorporated when the fossil materials were formed, it is very useful to compare it with a naturally occurring radioisotope having a known half-life.
Now, taking into account that the <u>fossils are millions and millions of years old, radioisotopes are needed that exceed this measure.
</u>
To understand it better:
The longer the half-life of a radioisotope, the greater its utility for estimating fossil ages or geological formations.
In this sense, uranium-238 (U238) has a half-life of 4,470 million years, therefore, it is among the most commonly used radioisotopes for fossil and geological dating.
Answer:
The answer is Dependent Variable
Answer:
t = 180 / 1.4 = 129 sec (time to swim horizontally across river)
S = 129 sec * V where V is speed of current and S is the distance he will be carried downstream
The problem does not specify V the speed of the river
1. The chemical reaction produced by Carlo's fire is exergonic because energy is "going out". As the reaction proceeds, entropy increases as the energy stored in the dry wood and leaves are used up as fuel to create the fire which produces low quality light and warmth.
2. This reaction is a classic example of an exothermic reaction. Exothermic reactions are characterized with the presence of heat and light in the products. Combustion reactions are always exothermic in nature.
3. Catalyst are substances that are used to speed up reactions by lowering the activation requirement. Catalysts aren't consumed in the reaction and can still be chemically retrieved afterwards. In this situation, the leaves cannot be retrieved after the reaction ends. The leaves speed up the heating of the wood but it does not behave as a catalyst.
