How old is a bone if it presently contains 0.3125g of C-14, but it was estimated to have originally contained 80.000g of C-14?

Answers

Answer 1

Half-life of C-14 is 5730 years

Answer 2

The age of the bone is the time taken to decay carbon -14 from a mass of 80 g to 0.3125 g. The decay time is 46209 years. That is the age of the bone.

What is carbon dating?

Carbon -14 isotope is radioactive and undergoes nuclear decay by the emission of charged particles. The age of a fossil sample which contains carbon -14 can be determined using the time of decay.

Half life of C-14 = 5730 years

decay constant k = 0.693 / 5730 = 0.00012 yr⁻¹

Initial amount of C-14 = 80 g

final amount = 0.3125 g

Then the time taken to decay 80 g to 0.3125 g is t = 1/k ln (80/0.312)

t = ln (80/0.312) / (0.00012 yr⁻¹)

 = 46209 years.

Therefore, the age of the bone is 46209 years.

Answers

Answer:

Opposite.

Water exhibits negative charge near hydrogen, positive near oxygen.

This is why it is OPPOSITE.

Let me know if this helps!

Water is a polar compound because it exhibits opposite charges. Therefore, option C is correct.

What is polar compound ?

The term polar compound is defined as the compound with distinct regions of positive and negative charge, as a result of bonding with atoms such as nitrogen, oxygen, or sulfur.

Water is a polar compound because the covalent bonds between hydrogen and oxygen in the water molecule are polar in nature. Any molecule with lone pairs of electrons around the central atom is polar compound.

In water there are two atoms are present that are oxygen and hydrogen. Hydrogen has positive charge while oxygen has negative charge,

Thus, Water is a polar compound because it exhibits opposite charges, option C is correct.

how can you identify if a physical or chemical change has occurred

Answers

Answer:

The difference between a physical reaction and a chemical reaction is what its made of. In a chemical reaction, there is a change in the materials of the substances in question; in a physical change there is a difference in the appearance, smell, or simple display of a sample of matter without a change in composition. Whereas will a chemical change there is not.

Answer:

Answer:

Physical changes are changes affecting the form of a chemical substance, but not its chemical composition. Physical changes are used to separate mixtures into their component compounds, but can not usually be used to separate compounds into chemical elements or simpler compounds.  Chemical changes occur when a substance combines with another to form a new substance, called chemical synthesis or, alternatively, chemical decomposition into two or more different substances. These processes are called chemical reactions and, in general, are not reversible except by further chemical reactions. Some signs of a chemical change are a change in color and the formation of bubbles. The five conditions of chemical change: color chage, formation of a precipitate, formation of a gas, odor change, temperature change. Change in Color. Noticeable Odor (after reaction has begun) Formation of a Precipitate. Formation of Bubbles.  Physical changes are changes that do not alter the identity of a substance. Chemical changes are changes that occur when one substance is turned into another substance. Chemical changes are frequently harder to reverse than physical changes

O an element with a small number of valence electrons and a large atomic radius
an element with a large number of valence electrons and a large atomic radius
Dan element with a large number of valence electrons and a small atomic radius

Answers

The element that will have the lowest electronegativity is an element with a small number of valence electrons and a large atomic radius.

Electronegativity of an element is the ability or power of that element in a molecule to attract electrons to its Valence electrons.  The following are the properties of electronegativity:

It increases across a period from left to right of the periodic table,It decreases down the periodic table groupsGroup 1 elements are the least (lowest) electronegative elements. These elements have the lowest valence electrons with a large atomic radius. Group 7 elements are the most electronegative elements.

Atomic radius of elements increase down a group because of a progressive increase in the number of shells occupied by electrons which increases the size. But it decreases across a period because electrons are accommodated within the same shell leading to greater attraction by the protons in the nucleus.

Answers

A. Pentene
Because the Molecular Formula is C5H12

Pentene is a molecule which has 5 carbon atoms. Therefore, the correct option is option A among all the given options.

What is molecule?

The smallest recognizable unit into defined a pure substance may be divided while retaining its composition as well as chemical properties is a molecule, which is a collection of at least two atoms. Until parts made up of single molecules become available, the division containing a sample of something into increasingly smaller parts does not result in a change in either the structure or its chemical properties.

Still smaller sections of the substance are produced by further subdivision, and these components are always different chemically and typically have different compositions from the initial substance. The chemical links that bind the atoms in the molecule together are severed during this final step of fragmentation. Pentene is a molecule which has 5 carbon atoms.

Therefore, the correct option is option A.

Answers

Answer:

1. 3-methylpentane

2. 2-bromo-3-chloropentane

3. 2,2,4-trimethylpentane

Explanation:

1. CH3CH2CH(CH3)CH2CH3.

Methyl group is in the third carbon atom in the long chain. The organic compound has five(5) carbon atoms thus it is named as pentane.

Therefore the name of the compound is

3-methylpentane

2. CH3CH(Br)CH(Cl)CH2CH3

The compound has Chlorine and Bromine in the carbon chain. Chlorine is given as chloro-, Bromine is given as bromo, depending on the position in the carbon chain. Bromine is located in 2 carbon atom and chlorine is in third(3) carbon atom in the long chain. The long chain has five carbon atoms thus pentane.

Naming of the compound we begin with the on lowest in the alphabet. The name of the organic compound is therefore;

2-bromo-3-chloropentane

3. CH3CH(CH3)3CH(CH3)CH2CH3

In this long chained organic compound, methyl-group is found in 2,2 and 4th positions. Since this is still pentane, naming the organic compounds, we start with the one with the lowest carbon. Therefore this becomes;

2,2,4-trimethylpentane

I hope this helps you to know how to name the organic compounds.
