Answer:
B. C, A, B
Explanation:
We can measure the age of an artifact by comparison of the activities a living sample with that of the artifact. This is so because the activity of the living sample represents the original activity of the artifact.
So, the steps involved in determining the age of an artifact is to measure the ratio of the parent and daughter nuclei. Then we use the half life of carbon to find out how many half lives have passed. Using this number of half lives that has passed, we can compute the age of the object.
Answer:
Melting snow more efficiently in winters, understanding the components of mineral water
Explanation:
Let's split this question into two parts. First of all, ionic bonds:
- an example would be the application of the freezing point depression law. Remember that adding a solute to a specific solvent would decrease the freezing point of a solvent. This is the reason why we add ionic salts, NaCl, to snow in order to make it melt. Knowledge of the fact that 1 mol of NaCl, an ionic compound, dissociates into 2 mol of ions, sodium and chloride, yields us a van 't Hoff factor of 2 rather than 1 for non-electrolytes, molecular compounds. This means the same molality of ionic compounds would produce a twice larger decrease in the freezing point of a solvent;
- an example for ionic naming is more trivial. Remember the difference between, say, calcium and calcium cation. Sometimes we may read that mineral water is full of calcium. Having chemical knowledge of ionic compound naming would lead us to a conclusion that this is wrong! Mineral water doesn't have any calcium in it, we don't see any metal in mineral water. However, mineral water contains calcium cations,

Answer:
In order to determine the formula of the hydrate, [Anhydrous Solid⋅xH2O], the number of moles of water per mole of anhydrous solid (x) will be calculated by dividing the number of moles of water by the number of moles of the anhydrous solid (Equation
Explanation:
It would be D. Cs
Because if you look at a periodic table the first column are the group 1 metals - I included a picture of group 1
