Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5715 years. It is used to determine the age of
1 answer:
The sample of Carbon-14 after 28,575 years=0.001875 mg
<h3>Further explanation</h3>General formulas used in decay:
T = duration of decay
t 1/2 = half-life
N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms
Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time
Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5715 years, so t1/2=5715 years
A sample today contains 0.060 mg of carbon-14, so No=0.06 mg, then :

Answer :
Dipole moments occur when there is a separation of charge. Dipole moments occur due to atoms electronegativity, where one atom has the ability to attract electrons towards it giving it a negative charge and the one deficient in electrons acquire a positive charge called as the bond moment.
But if the bond moments are equal and opposite in direction , they cancel each other and thus there is no net dipole moment in the molecule.
For example: In carbon dioxide , both the -C=O bonds are polar but as the molecule is linear and the the magnetic moments are equal and oppposite, they cancel each other and the molecule is non polar.

Explanation:
Aqueous hydroiodic acid reacts with liquid water in a reversible reaction.
2 HI + 2 H₂O ⇔ 2 H₃O + I₂
This is an acid-base reaction. HI is the acid, and H₂O is the base. The conjugate acid is H₃O, and the conjugate base is I₂. You can figure out the acid and base by a using a table of strong/weak acids and bases. The conjugate will have one less or one more H⁺ depending on if it's an acid or a base.
The expression for Kₐ of the reaction is below. You have to put the acid and its conjugate base on the top and the base and its conjugate on the bottom. I didn't put in H₂O since, although it is the base in this equation, it isn't really a base.
Solid zinc reacts with solid manganese (IV) oxide producing solid zinc oxide and solid manganese (III) oxide.
Zn + 2 MnO₂ ⇒ ZnO + Mn₂O₃
This is a redox reaction. The Zn is being oxidized, and the Mn is being reduced.
Oxidation: Zn ⇒ Zn⁺² + 2 e⁻
Reduction: Mn⁺⁴ + e⁻ ⇒ Mn⁺³
Aqueous silver nitrate reacts with aqueous calcium chloride.
2 AgNO₃ + CaCl₂ ⇒ 2 AgCl + Ca(NO₃)₂
This is a precipitation reaction. You have two soluble salts combing to form a solution. You now need to figure out which of the compounds produced are not soluble. AgCl is the compound that is not soluble in water, making it the precipitate.
