The time taken by Carbon-14 to decay radioactively from 120g to 112.5g is 22,920 years.
<h3>How do we calculate the total time of decay?</h3>
Time required for the whole radioactive decay of any substance will be calculated by using the below link:
T = (n)(t), where
- t = half life time = 5730 years
- n = number of half life required for the decay
Initial mass of Carbon-14 = 120g
Final mass of Carbon-14 = 112.5g
Left mass = 120 - 112 = 7.5g
Number of required half life for this will be:
- 1: 120 → 60
- 2: 60 → 30
- 3: 30 → 15
- 4: 15 → 7.5
4 half lives are required, now on putting values we get
T = (4)(5730) = 22,920 years
Hence required time for the decay is 22,920 years.

Answer: 6.26atm
Explanation:Please see attachment for explanation
Answer:
Option C
Explanation:
The theory is useful as in the usual constitution of the theory the professor stated
Their average speed during the trip is 53 km/ hr approximately
Explanation: The family traveled 80 km/hr for an hour and then trabeled 40 km/ hr for 2 hours. So they traveled 80 km in one hour then 80 km in the next 2 hours. Total they traveled 160 km in 3 hours.
Average speed = distance traveled/ taken time
= 160/3 = 53.33
Answer:
2.0 V
Explanation:
For the oxidation half cell;
Al(s) -------> Al^3+(aq) + 3e.
For reduction half cell;
Cu^2+(aq) +2e ------> Cu(s).
E°cell = E°cathode - E°anode
But;
E°cathode= 0.34 V
E°anode = -1.66 V
E°cell= 0.34 -(-1.66)
E°cell= 2.0 V
