Carbon -14 and Carbon 12 are the two substances geologists use in radiocarbon dating.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:
</u>
Radiocarbon dating denotes the determination process of the age of fossils of plants or animals based on the ratio of carbon atoms 14 to 12. Carbon naturally exists in two non-radioactive isotopes, Carbon-12 and Carbon-13 and one radioactive isotope carbon 14. The carbon 14 gets released on continuous cosmic reaction with atmospheric nitrogen.
These carbon 14 will be absorbed by the living plants and from the plants. Then, it will enter inside the animals which consume the plants. But once the plants and animals died, they ceased to intake carbon-14. In their living state, the ratios of carbon atoms 14 to 12 in them tends to similar to the ratio in atmosphere.
But after they die, the ratio of C-14 to C-12 will be varying from the ratio of C-14 to C-12 in atmosphere as the concentration of C-14 will be decreasing in the dead animals and plants. Thus using this ratio, geologists can find the fossil's age.
When a liquid goes from a liquid state to a gaseous state it is called evaporation
No because the mass of the empty beaker , mass of beaker is not balanced the amount of alcohol in the beaker.
Answer:
The hydrogen can be gotten from the added Acid or water during "workup".
Explanation:
Basically we can say that the reaction describe in this question is a Reduction reaction because of the chemical compound called sodium borohydride. In the reaction described above we can see that there is a Reduction of ketone to alcohol by the compound; sodium borohydride.
For the reduction Reaction to occur the C-O bond must break so as to enable the formation of O-H bond and C-H bond.
So, "the reaction mixture is treated with water and H2SO4 to produce the desired alcohol", thus, the oxygen will definitely pick up the hydrogen from H2SO4 or H2O.
