A very old tree limb contains an amount of carbon-14 that is approximately 1/8 of the current atmospheric 14C levels.. Calculate
Tomtit [17]

A.       The radioactive decay equation is N = N0e^{-ln(2)*t/T }

where T is the half-life (5730 years), N0 is the number of atoms at time t = 0 and N is the number at time t.

Rewriting this as:

(N/N0) = e^{-ln(2)*t/T }

Since N = (1/8) N0 and substituting known values:

1/8 = e^{-ln(2)*t/5730}

Taking ln of both sides:

ln(1/8)= -ln(2)*t/5730

t = - 5730 * ln(1/8) / ln (2)

t = 17,190 years

The tree was cut down 17,190 years ago.

B.   N0 = 1,500,000 carbon-14 atoms

Since N = (1/8) N0

N = 187,500 carbon atoms left

11. What is the specific heat of a substance with a mass of 25.5 g that requires 412 J
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

297 J

Explanation:

The key to this problem lies with aluminium's specific heat, which as you know tells you how much heat is needed in order to increase the temperature of

1 g

of a given substance by

1

∘

C

.

In your case, aluminium is said to have a specific heat of

0.90

J

g

∘

C

.

So, what does that tell you?

In order to increase the temperature of

1 g

of aluminium by

1

∘

C

, you need to provide it with

0.90 J

of heat.

But remember, this is how much you need to provide for every gram of aluminium in order to increase its temperature by

1

∘

C

. So if you wanted to increase the temperature of

10.0 g

of aluminium by

1

∘

C

, you'd have to provide it with

1 gram

However, you don't want to increase the temperature of the sample by

This means that you're going to have to use that much heat for every degree Celsius you want the temperature to change. You can thus say that

Therefore, the total amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of

Is carbon dioxide a reactant
Harman [31]

Answer: No

Explanation: <em>Reactants</em> are the substances present at the beginning of a chemical reaction. In the burning of natural gas, for example, methane (CH4) and oxygen (O2) are the reactants in the chemical reaction. <em>Products </em>are the substances formed by a chemical reaction. In the burning of natural gas, carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) are the products formed by the reaction.
