The presence of Catholicism in Australia in the late 1700s could be BEST explained by the increasing presence of A) Irish convic

defon

Answer:

Irish convicts

Explanation:

European explorers were familiar with Australia since the 1600s. However, they stepped their foot on infertile and dessert parts of the continent, so they showed no interest for this new land. Upon finding fertile land in eastern parts of the continent, in the 1700s, James Cook claimed it a British land.

Britain has just lost its colonies in America, so they decided to send men to this new land. However, they considered it infertile, lacking in resources and hard to live on, so they sent convicts, in, what will be known as the First Fleet, in 1788.

Thus first contingent of ships carried around 1500 convicts, mostly Irish, with more than 100 000 convicts in the following years.

With them, Catholicism arrived in Australia, and later spread throughout the continent.

Extend your thinking: The slow decay of radioactive materials can be used to find the age of rocks, fossils, and archaeological

lisov135 [29]

The age in years of the Egyptian papyrus, the Aboriginal charcoal, the Mayan headdress, and the Neanderthal skull are 4000 years, 13106.5years , 2040 years, and 30353 years respectively.

<h3>What is the half-life of a radioactive material?</h3>

The half-life of a radioactive material is the time taken for half the atoms present in the material to decay or disintegrate.

The half-life, $t_\frac{1}{2}$ , the age, t, and amount remaining, $A_{r}$ , of a radioactive material are related by the formula below:

$t = \frac{t_\frac{1}{2}*A_{r}}{-ln2}$

Half-life of carbon-14 = 6000 years

For the Egyptian papyrus with 63% of its original carbon-14 atoms: $t = \frac{6000*0.63}{-0.63} = 4000\:years$

For the Aboriginal charcoal with 22% of its original carbon-14 atoms:

$t = \frac{6000*0.22}{-0.63} = 13106.5\:years$

For the Mayan headdress with 79% of its original carbon-14 atoms:

$t = \frac{6000*0.79}{-0.63} = 2040\:years$

Neanderthal skull with 3% of its original carbon-14 atoms:

$t = \frac{6000*0.03}{-0.63} = 30353\:years$

Therefore, the age in years of the Egyptian papyrus, the Aboriginal charcoal, the Mayan headdress, and the Neanderthal skull are 4000 years, 13106.5years , 2040 years, and 30353 years respectively.

A mixture contains only nacl and al2(so4)3. a 1.45 g sample of the mixture is dissolved in water, and an excess of naoh is added

Aleks [24]

When mixture of NaCl and Al₂(SO₄)₃ is allowed to react with excess NaOH, only Al₂(SO₄)₃ reacts with it and NaCl does not react with NaOH due to presence of common ion (Na⁺). On reaction gelatinous precipitate of aluminium hydroxide [Al(OH)₃] is produced. The balanced chemical reaction is represented as-

Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6NaOH → 2Al(OH)₃ + 3Na₂SO₄

On this reaction, 0.495 g = 0.495/78 moles =6.346 X 10⁻³ moles of Al(OH)₃.

As per balanced reaction, two moles of Al(OH)₃ is produced from one mole Al₂(SO₄)₃. So, 6.346 X 10⁻³ moles of Al(OH)₃ is produced from (6.346 X 10⁻³)/2 moles=3.173 X 10⁻³ moles of Al₂(SO₄)₃= 3.173 X 10⁻³ X 342 g of Al₂(SO₄)₃=1.085 g of Al₂(SO₄)₃.

So, mass percentage of Al₂(SO₄)₃ is= (amount of Al₂(SO₄)₃/total amount of mixture)X100 = $\frac{1.085 X 100}{1.45}$ =74.8 %.
