Answer:
Explanation:
= Half-life of carbon = 5700 years
t = Time at which the remaining mass is to be found = 10400 years
= Initial mass of carbon = 11 g
Decay constant is given by
Amount of mass remaining is given by
The amount of the substance that remains after 10400 years is .
Answer:
Sample C is most likely the metal.
Explanation:
The Sample C is the metal, because the properties given in the sample c are all of the metal. As we know that the metals are the lustrous or the shiny elements. They are often good conductor of heat and also electricity. The metals possess high melting point. The density of the metals are heavy for their size. Metals can be easily hammered, and hence are malleable. They can easily be stretched into wires hence are ductile. They remains solid at room temperature but in case of mercury it remains as liquid. Metals are opaque object and cannot be see through it.
