Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,730 years. It is used in "carbon dating" to determine the age of once living organisms. How much

of a 144 gram sample of C-14 will remain after 17,190 years have past.

Answer:

18 grams

Explanation:

Because 17,190 yrs divided by the amount of years it takes for a half-life to occur is 3. So 3 half life’s happen, so you divide 144/2 once, equaling 72. You divide 72/2 again (another half-life) and you get 36. You then calculate the third half life by dividing 36/2 which equals 18 grams.

A heat energy of 645 J is applied to a sample of glass with a mass of 28.4 g. Its temperature increases from –11.6 ∞C to 15.5 ∞C
Anika [276]
The heat that is required to raise the temperature of an object is calculated through the equation,
                        heat = mass x specific heat x (T2 - T1)
Specific heat is therefore calculated through the equation below,
                                specific heat = heat / (mass x (T2 - T1))
Substituting,
                                specific heat = 645 J / ((28.4 g)(15.5 - - 11.6))
The value of specific heat from above equation is 0.838 J/g°C.
