Answer:
8
Explanation:
When you balance the entire equation, you should get:
C5H12 + 8O2 ---> 5CO2 + 6H2O
Answer:
Synthesis
Explanation:
A sysnthesis reaction takes two or more reactants to create one product
I’m pretty sure it’s NH4, ammonium
The picture isn’t included
Answer:
The artifact is 570 years old. That is, 5.7 × 10² years.
Explanation:
Radioactive decay follows first order reaction kinetics.
Let the initial activity for fresh Carbon-14 be A₀
And the activity at any other time be A
The rate of radioactive decay is given by
dA/dt = - KA
dA/A = - kdt
Integrating the left hand side from A₀ to A₀/2 and the right hand side from 0 to t(1/2) (where t(1/2) is the radioactive isotope's half life)
In [(A₀/2)/A₀] = - k t(1/2)
In (1/2) = - k t(1/2)
- In 2 = - k t(1/2)
k = (In 2)/t₍₁,₂₎
t(1/2) is given in the question to be 5.73 × 10³ years
k = (In 2)/5730 = 0.000121 /year
dA/A = - kdt
Integrating the left hand side from A₀ to A and the right hand side from 0 to t
In (A/A₀) = - kt
A/A₀ = e⁻ᵏᵗ
A = A₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ
A = 2.8 × 10³ Bq.
A₀ = 3.0 × 10³ Bq.
2.8 × 10³ = 3.0 × 10³ e⁻ᵏᵗ
0.9333 = e⁻ᵏᵗ
e⁻ᵏᵗ = 0.9333
-kt = In 0.9333
- kt = - 0.06899
t = 0.06899/0.000121 = 570.2 years = 5.7 × 10² years
