Carbon-14 (14C) dating assumes that the carbon dioxide on the Earth today has the same radioactive content as it did centuries a

Nataly [62]

<u>Answer:</u> The tree was burned 16846.4 years ago to make the ancient charcoal

<u>Explanation:</u>

The equation used to calculate rate constant from given half life for first order kinetics:

$t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}$

where,

$t_{1/2}$ = half life of the reaction = 5715 years

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$k=\frac{0.693}{5715yrs}=1.21\times 10^{-4}yrs^{-1}$

Rate law expression for first order kinetics is given by the equation:

$k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{[A_o]}{[A]}$

where,

k = rate constant = $1.21\times 10^{-4}yr^{-1}$

t = time taken for decay process = ? yr

$[A_o]$ = initial amount of the sample = 100 grams

[A] = amount left after decay process = 13 grams

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.21\times 10^{-4}=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{100}{13}\\\\t=16864.4yrs$

Hence, the tree was burned 16846.4 years ago to make the ancient charcoal

A compound has 15.39 g of gold for every 2.77 g of chlorine.

Ugo [173]

Answer:

There is 5.56 g of gold for every 1 g of chlorine

Explanation:

The question is to determine the simplest mass ratio of gold to Chlorine in the compound.

Since the mass of gold in the compound compared to chlorine is 15.39 g for every 2.77 g, the mass of gold per gram of chlorine is given as:

15.39 / 2.77 = 5.56 g of gold to two decimal places

<em>Therefore, for every 5.56 g of gold, there is 1 g of chlorine.</em>

<em>Note : The ratio in which different elements combine by mass to form a compound is given by the law of constant composition which states that, "all pure samples of a particular chemical compound contain the same elements combined in the same proportion by mass.</em>

What is the ratio of the areas of the signals in the h nmr spectrum of pentan-3-ol?

Damm [24]

The ratio of the areas of the signals in the h NMR spectrum of pentan-3-ol is 6: 4: 1: 1. The correct option is A.

<h3>What is a NMR spectrum?</h3>

Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a spectroscopy that shows the detailed structure and chemical environment of a chemical element.

Pentan-3-ol contain 12 hydrogen atoms. In H-NMR spectra, hydrogen atoms have same environment gives a signal.

There are 4 different kinds of signals due of the 4 different environment experienced by these 12 hydrogens.

Thus, the ratio of the areas of the signals in the h NMR spectrum of pentan-3-ol is 6: 4: 1: 1. The correct option is A.

Which of these best describes the relationship between the inner core, outer core, mantle, crust, asthenosphere, and lithosphere

torisob [31]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Which of these best describes the relationship between the inner core, outer core, mantle, crust, asthenosphere, and lithosphere?

A: The coolest layers are farthest from the core.

B: The least dense layers are closest to the core.

C: The layers with the highest concentration of metals are closest to the crust.

D: The layers that remain in a molten state are closest to the crust.

Answer:

The coolest layers are farthest from the core.

Explanation:

When we talk about the internal structure of Earth, we mean the subdivisions of the solid Earth, that is, the concentric spherical layers that marks out the structure of the solid Earth.

The inner core is the innermost part of the earth's core and is known to have extremely high temperature. This high temperature steadily decreases as you approach the earth's surface.

Hence, the coolest layers are farthest from the core.
