. Monthly measurements of atmospheric CO2 concentration at Mauna Loa began in March 1958. The average CO2 concentration for that
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Increase=98.8ppm

Average\ increase/year=1.594\frac{ppm}{year}

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the nowadays concentration of CO2 is 414.51 ppm and the concentration in 1958 was 315.71 ppm, the total increase is computed via the difference between them:

Increase=414.51ppm-315.71ppm\\\\Increase=98.8ppm

Moreover, the average increase per year is computed considering that from 1958 to 2020, 62 years have passed, therefore, such average is:

Average\ increase/year=\frac{98.8ppm}{62 years} \\\\Average\ increase/year=1.594\frac{ppm}{year}

Regards.

E. Give evidence to support or dispute: "In nature, the chance of finding one isotope
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

This question appears incomplete

Explanation:

However, the chance of finding one isotope of an element is not the same for all elements because some elements/isotopes are more in abundance than some other elements/isotopes; for example the most abundant element on earth is nitrogen-14, hence the chances of finding nitrogen-14 in nature is higher the chances of finding any isotope of Xenon.

Also, while isotopes occur naturally, some do not. Hence, the chances of finding a naturally occurring isotopes (no matter how rare like Xenon-126) is higher than the chances of finding artificial radioisotopes like technetium-95 and promethium-146 (whose chances are zero because they cannot be found naturally occurring).

Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,730 years. After how many half-lives will 120 grams of Carbon-14 decay to 15 grams?
Sergeu [11.5K]
After 17190 years, Carbon-14 will reach a mass of 15 grams.

Pi is your initial amount (120 grams)
0.5 as your exponential base represents your HALF life hence 0.5
t represents the time elapsed
c represents your given half life value of (5730)
P(t) represents the exponential function of your half life

120/2 =60
60/2 = 30
30 /2 = 15

As you can see above, 3 half lives of 5730 years EACH degraded the carbon-14 to 15 grams. You divide each number by two as it is a HALF life.

P(t)= Pi (0.5) ^t/c
P(17190) = 120 (0.5) ^17190/5730
P(17190) = 120 (0.5) ^3
P(17190) = 15 grams

So your answers should be 3 half lives or after 17190 years have elapsed!
