Which of the following is NOT true about relative dating?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Igoryamba3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

It uses fossils to help pinpoint the ages of rocks.

Explanation:

Radiocarbon  dating can not be used  to determine the age of rocks.

Carbon dating works well only for objects that are less than 50,000 years.  Most rocks are far older than that. Over time, carbon-14 decays gradually  into nitrogen. Hence, we can not really use radiocarbon dating to determine the absolute age of a rock sample since the carbon-14 in the fossils of ancient rock samples may have completely decayed.

Explain how a redox reacation involves electrons in the same way that a neutralization reaction involves protons
lidiya [134]
For the neutralization process: an acid acts as a donor and donates protons to the base. On the other hand, the base acts as an acceptor and accepts the transferred protons. In a nutshell, neutralization is mainly proton transfer process.

As for the redox process: the oxidized material usually transfers electrons to the reduced material. In a nutshell, redox is mainly electron transfer process.

A man pours some hot coffee into a small cup from a large jug that contains enough coffee for several cups. Which statement corr
Stells [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is "The coffee in the jug has more thermal energy than the coffee in the cup".

Explanation:

First I had to look for the problem to know the possible answers.

In this case, the coffee jug has a large amount of coffee at the same temperature. If we analyze that the decanter and the coffee are at the same temperature, we have a homogeneous thermal system. The cup is at room temperature, so by pouring coffee into it, the temperature of the coffee decreases to balance with the temperature of the cup. At this moment, the temperature of the cup-cafe system is lower than the jug-cafe system.

Thermal energy is the part of the internal energy of an equilibrated thermodynamic system that is proportional to its absolute temperature and increases or decreases by energy transfer.

In this way, we can ensure that the thermal energy of the cup-cafe system is lower than that of the jug-cafe system.

Have a nice day!
