Why can’t elements be separated into smaller parts using chemical means?
fenix001 [56]
Why can't elements be separated into smaller parts using chemical means? Too much energy is required, since you'd have to break them down into protons, neutrons, and electrons. You can get this much energy together with nuclear reactions, but not by chemical means.

In metallic bonds, electrons are referred to as electrons.​
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Metallic bonding may be described as the sharing of free electrons among a lattice of positively charged metal ions. The structure of metallic bonds is very different from that of covalent and ionic bonds. ... In metallic bonds, the valence electrons from the s and p orbitals of the interacting metal atoms delocalize.

<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
