The artifact appears to have gone through 2 half-lives. 
One half-life for Carbon-14 is 5730 years.
After 5730 years, there would be 1/2 as much carbon-14
After another 5730 years, there would be 1/4 as much carbon-14

The answer is roughly 11,460 years

What shape and bond angles would this molecule have in three dimensions?
Darya [45]

Answer : The shape and bond angle of the given molecule is, bent and 120^o respectively.

Explanation :

In the given molecule, 'Y' is the central atom and 'X' is the neighboring atom. In the given molecule, there are 4 electron pairs that means the hybridization will be sp^3 and the electronic geometry of the molecule will be tetrahedral.

But as there are two atoms around the central atom, the third and fourth position will be occupied by lone pair of electrons. The repulsion between lone and bond pair of electrons is more and hence the molecular geometry will be bent or angular and the bond angle will be, 120^o.

Hence, the shape and bond angle of the given molecule is, bent and 120^o respectively.

Mkey [24]

Answer:

A well tested explanation of a natural phenomenon

Explanation:

A scientific theory is an explanation of a natural phenomenon which has been drawn from a well tested observation.

Theories are products of repeated scientific experiments. When a hypothesis otherwise known as a "scientific guess" survives a lot of scrutiny, we can elevate it to the status of a theory. Most theories starts off from simple observations. These observations can further spark series of experiments in such a field and a scientific guess proposed. Further testing and experimenting would now lead to a theory.
