Answer:
18.94%.
Explanation:
- The decay of carbon-14 is a first order reaction.
- The rate constant of the reaction (k) in a first order reaction = ln (2)/half-life = 0.693/(5730 year) = 1.21 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹.
- The integration law of a first order reaction is:
<em>kt = ln [A₀]/[A]</em>
k is the rate constant = 1.21 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹.
t is the time = 13,750 years.
[A₀] is the initial percentage of carbon-14 = 100.0 %.
[A] is the remaining percentage of carbon-14 = ??? %.
∵ kt = ln [Ao]/[A]
∴ (1.21 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹)(13,750 years) = ln (100.0%)/[A]
1.664 = ln (100.0%)/[A]
Taking exponential for both sides:
5.279 = (100.0%)/[A]
<em>∴ [A]</em> = (100.0%)/5.279 = <em>18.94%.</em>
Answer:
Gravity drives all mass wasting.
Explanation:
Mass wasting can be defined as the process of wasting away of earth's outer crust. This movement is also known as slope movement that causes large rock, soil, and debris to move downward, a force driven by gravity.
The term is often used interchangeably with landslide yet it is different. It is also known as mass movement as is cause massive downslope movement of rock, regolith, snow, ice, and-the-like on the earth's outer crust.
<u>All these movements are driven mainly by gravity. Gravity consantly tries to pull the rocks and soil down the slope but the resisting power. also known as shear strength, of moutains helps them to deny the gravitional force.</u>
Thus from the given options the statement that can be said to be true about mass wasting is that mass wasting is driven by gravity. So, the correct option is C.
This is due to the difference in density. The rock is
denser than the leaf. And also, the rock is denser than the liquid in the pond.
If the material is denser than the other material, it will sink. The same holds
true for the rock, it sinks. But when the material is less dense than the other
material, it floats. And it holds true for the leaf, it floats.
Sulfuric acid reacts violently with alcohol and water to release heat. It reacts with most metals, particularly when diluted with water, to form flammable hydrogen gas, which may create an explosion hazard. ... Hazardous decomposition products are as follows: sulfur dioxide, sulfur trioxide, and sulfuric acid fumes.
