Answer:
Option b. Decomposition
Followed by a reduction process using charcoal
Explanation:
Lead can be obtained from lead nitrate by thermal decomposition of lead nitrate as shown below:
2Pb(NO3)2 —> 2PbO + 4NO2 + O2
The PbO obtained is reduced by charcoal(C) to obtain the metallic Pb as shown below:
2PbO + C —> Pb + CO2
Hi, your answer is correct.
Relative dating can only determine the sequential order<span> of events, not the exact date which something occurred. It is useful for being able to determine a timeline of events in an exact point, but won't give a full picture of events in the past nor account for the age of material.

For this problem, we use the Beer Lambert's Law. Its usual equation is:
A = ∈LC
where
A is the absorbance
∈ is the molar absorptivity
L is the path length
C is the concentration of the sample solution
As you notice, we only have to find the absorbance. But since we are not given with the molar absorptivity, we will have to use the modified equation that relates % transmittance to absorbance:
A = 2 - log(%T)
A = 2 - log(27.3)
A = 0.5638
