Give two similarities in the products when chlorine, bromine and iodine react with iron
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Iodine. The reaction between hot iron and iodine vapor produces gray iron(II) iodide, and is much less vigorous. This reaction, the equation for which is given below, is difficult to carry out because he product is always contaminated with iodine. Iodine is only capable of oxidizing iron to the +2 oxidation state.

Extend your thinking: The slow decay of radioactive materials can be used to find the age of rocks, fossils, and archaeological
lisov135 [29]

The age in years of the Egyptian papyrus, the Aboriginal charcoal, the Mayan headdress, and the Neanderthal skull are 4000 years, 13106.5years , 2040 years, and 30353 years respectively.

<h3>What is the half-life of a radioactive material?</h3>

The half-life of a radioactive material is the time taken for half the atoms present in the material to decay or disintegrate.

The half-life, t_\frac{1}{2}, the age, t, and amount remaining, A_{r}, of a radioactive material are related by the formula below:

  • t = \frac{t_\frac{1}{2}*A_{r}}{-ln2}

Half-life of carbon-14 = 6000 years

For the Egyptian papyrus with 63% of its original carbon-14 atoms:t = \frac{6000*0.63}{-0.63} = 4000\:years

For the Aboriginal charcoal with 22% of its original carbon-14 atoms:

t = \frac{6000*0.22}{-0.63} = 13106.5\:years

For the Mayan headdress with 79% of its original carbon-14 atoms:

t = \frac{6000*0.79}{-0.63} = 2040\:years

Neanderthal skull with 3% of its original carbon-14 atoms:

t = \frac{6000*0.03}{-0.63} = 30353\:years

Therefore, the age in years of the Egyptian papyrus, the Aboriginal charcoal, the Mayan headdress, and the Neanderthal skull are 4000 years, 13106.5years , 2040 years, and 30353 years respectively.
