Explanation:

Magnesium representation : 1s²2s²2p⁶3s².

therefore, to become Mg2+ ion Magnesium losses electron from its 3s orbital to form 1s²2s²2p⁶.

therefore option C is correct.

hope this helps you.

Answer:

3s orbital

Explanation:

3s is the outermost orbital of magnesium and it loses electron from it, it doesnt even have 4f, 5p or 3d orbitals.

The half-life of a radioactive isotope is the amount of time it takes for a quantity of that isotope to decay to one half of its

Sedaia [141]

Radio active decay reactions follow first order rate kinetics.

a) The half life and decay constant for radio active decay reactions are related by the equation:

$t_{\frac{1}{2}} =$ $\frac{ln 2}{k}$

$t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{0.693}{k}$

Where k is the decay constant

b) Finding out the decay constant for the decay of C-14 isotope:

$Decay constant (k) = \frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}$

$k = \frac{0.693}{5230 years}$

$k = 1.325 * 10^{-4} yr^{-1}$

c) Finding the age of the sample :

35 % of the radiocarbon is present currently.

The first order rate equation is,

$[A] = [A_{0}]e^{-kt}$

$\frac{[A]}{[A_{0}]} = e^{-kt}$

$\frac{35}{100} = e^{-(1.325 *10^{-4})t}$

$ln(0.35) = -(1.325 *10^{-4})(t)$

t = 7923 years

Therefore, age of the sample is 7923 years.
