Answer:
The nuclear decay of radioactive elements is a process that is a useful tool for determining the absolute age of fossils and rocks. It is used as a clock, in which daughter elements or isotopes converted from parent isotopes by decaying at a particular time.
Radioactive decay rates are constant and do not change over time. It is measured in half-life. A half-life is a time it takes half of a parent isotope to decay and converted into a stable daughter isotope. How many parent isotopes and daughter isotopes present in the fossil or their abundance can help in determining the age of fossil or rock.

Answer:
Buffer B has the highest buffer capacity.
Buffer C has the lowest buffer capacity.
Explanation:
An effective weak acid-conjugate base buffer should have pH equal to
of the weak acid. For buffers with the same pH, higher the concentrations of the components in a buffer, higher will the buffer capacity.
Acetic acid is a weak acid and
is the conjugate base So, all the given buffers are weak acid-conjugate base buffers. The pH of these buffers are expressed as (Henderson-Hasselbalch):
![pH=pK_{a}(CH_{3}COOH)+log\frac{[CH_{3}COO^{-}]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3DpK_%7Ba%7D%28CH_%7B3%7DCOOH%29%2Blog%5Cfrac%7B%5BCH_%7B3%7DCOO%5E%7B-%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BCH_%7B3%7DCOOH%5D%7D)

Buffer A: 
Buffer B: 
Buffer C: 
So, both buffer A and buffer B has same pH value which is also equal to
. Buffer B has higher concentrations of the components as compared to buffer A, Hence, buffer B has the highest buffer capacity.
The pH of buffer C is far away from
. Therefore, buffer C has the lowest buffer capacity.
Answer:
0.208mole of CO2
Explanation:
First, let us calculate the number of mole of HC3H3O2 present.
Molarity of HC3H3O2 = 0.833 mol/L
Volume = 25 mL = 25/100 = 0.25L
Mole =?
Mole = Molarity x Volume
Mole = 0.833 x 0.25
Mole of HC3H3O2 = 0.208mole
Now, we can easily find the number of mole of CO2 produce by doing the following:
NaHCO3 + HC2H3O2 → NaC2H3O2 + H2O + CO2
From the equation,
1mole of HC2H3O2 produced 1 mole of CO2.
Therefore, 0.208mole of HC2H3O2 will also produce 0.208mole of CO2
