Cat urine. May sound weird, may get it wrong, but it's true. Your teacher'll freak out.
CO2 is the emperical formula of carbon dioxide
Balance the chemical equation for the chemical reaction.
Convert the given information into moles.
Use stoichiometry for each individual reactant to find the mass of product produced.
The reactant that produces a lesser amount of product is the limiting reagent.
The reactant that produces a larger amount of product is the excess reagent.
To find the amount of remaining excess reactant, subtract the mass of excess reagent consumed from the total mass of excess reagent given.

Equation for Half life :
A = a(0.5)^(t/h)
A is current amount, "a" is initial amount, h is halflife, t is time
5 = 40(0.5)^(t/1.3x10^9)
5/40 = (0.5)^(t/1.3x10^9)
take the log of both sides , power rule
Log(5/40) = (t/1.3x10^9) * Log(0.5)
(1.3x10^9) * Log(5/40) / Log(0.5) = t
3.9x10^9 years = t
And if you think about what a half life is, the time it take for the amount to reduce to half.
40/2 = 20
20/2 = 10
10/2 = 5
It went through 3 half-lifes
3 * 1.3x10^9 = 3.9x10^9 years
