I believe it’s the third option
Chemically combined to make a new pure substance
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
= 11,460 years
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>The half life of Carbon-14 is 5,730 years
. Half life is the time taken by a radioactive material to decay by half of its original mass. Therefore, it would take a time of 5730 years for a sample of 100 g of carbon-14 to decay to 50 grams</u></em>
<em>The initial amount of carbon-14 in this case was 1 whole; thus; </em>
<em>1 → 1/2 →1/4</em>
<em>To contain 1/4 of the value, 2 half-lives have passed.
</em>
<em>But, 1 half life = 5,730 years</em>
<em>Therefore; The artifact is is therefore: 2 x 5,730
</em>
<em> = 11,460 years </em>
Scientist arrange there data in coding and research.
