It is a compound because a compound is two or more different elements chemically combined.
The artifact appears to have gone through 2 half-lives.
One half-life for Carbon-14 is 5730 years.
After 5730 years, there would be 1/2 as much carbon-14
After another 5730 years, there would be 1/4 as much carbon-14
The answer is roughly 11,460 years
The classifying of organisms is called "Taxonomy" or the second option. Taxonomy mainly takes place with organisms although it could be used to classify anything. Taxonomy consists of a graph with eight categories all used to classify a living organism.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
67.6 years is the time the isotope take to decay from 0.900g to 0.170g
Explanation:
The radioactive decay follows first order law:
Ln [A] = -kt + ln[A]₀
<em>Where [A] is concentration after time t,</em>
<em>k is decay constant:</em>
<em>k = ln 2 / t(1/2)</em>
<em>k = ln2 / 28.1 years</em>
<em>k = 0.02467 years⁻¹</em>
<em>[A]₀ = Initial concentration.</em>
<em />
We can replace concentration and use the mass of the isotope:
Ln [A] = -kt + ln[A]₀
Ln [0.170g] = -0.02467 years⁻¹t + ln[0.900g]
-1.667 = -0.02467 years⁻¹t
t =
<h3>67.6 years is the time the isotope take to decay from 0.900g to 0.170g</h3>
