The Half life is the time taken for a radioisotope or a radioactive substance to decay by half its original amount. The half life of carbon 14 is 5600 years.
Original mass is 100%
Remaining amount is 24%
Therefore; 0.24 = 1 × (1/2)^n
n = log 0.24/log 0.5
= 2.06
therefore, the age of the fossil is 5600×2.06
= 11529.8
≈ 11529 years

Answer
_2 HNO₃ + 1 Mg(OH)₂ → 1 Mg(NO₃)₂ + 2 H₂O
Explanation
Given:
______HNO3 + Mg(OH)2 ------>
Solution:
Note that the reaction between an acid and a base will give salt and water only.
Hence the complete reaction of the given equation is:
___HNO₃ + Mg(OH)₂ → Mg(NO₃)₂ + H₂O
To get the balanced equation for the acid-base reaction, 2 moles of HNO₃ will react with 1 mole of Mg(OH)₂ to produced 1 mole of Mg(NO₃)₂ and 2 moles of H₂O.
Therefore, the complete and balanced equation for the given acid-base reaction is:
_2 HNO₃ + 1 Mg(OH)₂ → 1 Mg(NO₃)₂ + 2 H₂O
A colloid has the particles that have the ability to scatter light called the Tyndall effect named after the scientist named Tyndall. A suspension has large suspended particles that settle out at the bottom of the container. A solution has small particles that are evenly distributed throughout. Hence the answer is choice 2.
The molecule for ethane is C2H6. or CH3-CH3.
Carbon LOVES hydrogen. If possible, Carbon would have four bonds attach to hydrogens. IN this molecule, one of the bond is used to attach a carbon to another carbon, so instead of 4 hydrogens, each carbon would have 3 hydrogens..
