<span>Natural resources such as oil that are as yet undiscovered are very difficult to predict or estimate; this creates huge uncertainty and large errors in even the most rigorous scientific efforts to predict future supply. Changes in oil drilling and discovery technology can and will completely change the eventual results in the search for undiscovered resources. The controversy lies in the desire to eliminate oil from the world's energy mix in order to prevent a perceived but uncertain risk of global warming and the desire to encourage the use of alternative energy in order to reduce that risk, even though so far no alternative energy source other than natural gas, coal, and nuclear energy has been able to compete with oil economically.</span>
Glucose is used by intestinal cells and red blood cells, while the rest reaches the liver, adipose tissue and muscle cells, where it is absorbed and stored as glycogen.
(it is saved to be used later)
Answer:
No streak of light will appear.
Reason I given below.
Explanation:
No streak of light will be seen.
This is because as it falls to the moon, the gravitational pull plus the dense atmosphere which was necessary to produce friction when it fell to the earth are not present in this case and as such the whole meteor is not burnt like it did when it fell to the earth.
Answer:
0.272 mol
Explanation:
∆Tb = m × Kb
∆Tb = 85.2°C - 78.4°C = 6.8°C
Kb = 1.22°C/m
mass of ethanol = 48.80 g = 48.80/1000 = 0.0488 kg
Let the moles of non-ionizing solute be y
m (molality) = y/0.0488
6.8 = y/0.0488 × 1.22
y = 6.8×0.0488/1.22 = 0.272 mol
The question is incomplete. The complete question is:
The half-life for the decay of carbon-14 is 5.73x10^3 years. Suppose the activity due to the radioactive decay of the carbon-14 in a tiny sample of an artifact made of woodfrom an archeological dig is measured to be 2.8x10^3 Bq. The activity in a similiar-sized sample of fresh wood is measured to be 3.0x10^3 Bq. Calculate the age of the artifact. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
Answer:
570 years
Explanation:
The activity of the fresh sample is taken as the initial activity of the wood sample while the activity measured at a time t is the present activity of the wood artifact. The time taken for the wood to attain its current activity can be calculated from the formula shown in the image attached. The activity at a time t must always be less than the activity of a fresh wood sample. Detailed solution is found in the image attached.
