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:
Mass of carbon dioxide produced = 52.8 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of carbon react = 14.4 g
Mass of oxygen = 56.5 g
Mass of oxygen left = 18.1 g
Mass of carbon dioxide produced = ?
Solution:
C + O₂ → CO₂
Number of moles of C:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 14.4 g/ 12 g/mol
Number of moles = 1.2 mol
18.1 g of oxygen left it means carbon is limiting reactant.
Now we will compare the moles of C with CO₂.
C : CO₂
1 : 1
1.2 : 1.2
Mass of CO₂:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 1.2 mol × 44 g/mol
Mass = 52.8 g
