Answer:
C. The half-life of C-14 is about 40,000 years.
Explanation:
The only false statement from the options is that the half-life of C-14 is 40,000yrs.
The half-life of an isotope is the time it takes for half of a radioactive material to decay to half of its original amount. C-14 has an half-life of 5730yrs. This implies that during every 5730yrs, C-14 will reduce to half of its initial amount.
- All living organisms contain both stable C-12 and the unstable isotope of C-14
- The lower the C-14 compared to the C-12 ratio in an organism, the older it is.
Isotopes of any given factor all incorporate the equal variety of protons, so they have the identical atomic wide variety (for example, the atomic wide variety of helium is usually 2). Isotopes of a given factor include exceptional numbers of neutrons, therefore, special isotopes have special mass numbers.
Answer:
I just did the assignment it's "decreases"
Explanation:
If you guys came from Ed-genuity (i'm writing it like that because apperantly that is a swear word?) That means the next questions are "As you move from left to right across the periodic table, electronegativity..." and "As you move from top to bottom within a group, the first ionization energy...".
for electronegativity, it's increases and for ionization energy it's decreases. Hope this helps!
Answer:
It's D. On the surface of the solid.
Explanation:
If the reactant is a solid, the surface area of the solid will impact how fast the reaction goes. This is because the two types of molecule can only bump into each other at the liquid solid interface, i.e. on the surface of the solid. So the larger the surface area of the solid, the faster the reaction will be.
