Be sure to answer all parts. The carbon-14 decay rate of a sample obtained from a young tree is 0.264 disintegration per second per gram of the sample. Another wood sample prepared from an object recovered at an archaeological excavation gives a decay rate of 0.193 disintegration per second per gram of the sample. What is the age of the object? (The half-life of carbon-14 is 5715 years.) × 1 ol 1 years Enter your answer in scientific notation.
A sample of charred animal bones found in a cave has a carbon-14 decay rate of 5.2 disintegrations per minute per gram of carbon (5.2 dis/min-g C). Living organisms have a decay rate of 15.3 dis/min-g C. The half-life of carbon-14 is 5715 yr. How old is the bone sample? (All radioactive elements decay according to first order kinetics.) a)2.8 x 10 3 yrs b)3.9 x 10 3 yrs c)1.9 x 10 3 yrs d)8.9 x 10 3 yrs
An archeological artifact was subjected to radiocarbon dating. The artifact showed a carbon-14 decay rate of 12.2disintegrations/min per gram of carbon. Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5715 years, and currently living organisms decay at the rate of 15.3 disintegrations/min per gram of carbon. What is the approximate age of the artifact? Select one: A. 371 years old B. 6597 years old C. 851 years old D. 1867 years old
Living matter has a carbon-14 activity of about 24.0 counts/min per gram of carbon. What is the age of an artifact for which the carbon-14 activity is 3.00 counts/min per gram of carbon? The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years. Express your answer with the appropriate units. I MÅ R O 2 ? Age = yr Age = 34380 Submit Submit Previous Answers Request Answer
In a living organism, the decay of C-14 produces 15.3 disintegrations per minute per gram of carbon. The half-life of C-14 is 5730 years. A bone sample with 2.6 g of carbon has 15.7 disintegrations per minute. How old is the bone sample in years?
(4) (1 pt) A sample of bone is subjected to radiocarbon dating. The current decay rate observed for its carbon-14 content is 11.2 disintegrations per minute per gram of carbon. What is the age (in years) of the bone? The half- life for carbon-14 is 5.73x10 yrs., and the decay rate for carbon-14 in living organisms is 15.3 disintegrations per minute per gram of carbon.
1) In a living organism, the decay of C-14 produces 15.3 disintegrations per minute per gram of carbon. The half-life of C-14 is 5730 years. A bone sample with 2.5 g of carbon has 22.5 disintegrations per minute. How old is the bone sample in years? 2) There are three isotopes of phosphorus. Only one of them is stable. Calculate the binding energy per nucleon (in MeV) for P-30 (atomic mass = 29.9783 u). H = 1.007825 u and n...
Radiocarbon dating of a sample of wood from the tomb of an Egyptian pharaoh found that in the 1 gram of the sample there were 9.843 times 10^-15 mol of C-14 and 1.202 times 10^-2 mol of C-12. The C-14 isotope is radioactive and decays with a half-life of 5, 730 years: the C-12 isotope is stable (does not decay). If the initial ratio of these isotopes is known to have been Number of C-14/Number of C-12 = 1.20 times...
A 50.0 g sample of carbon is taken from the pelvis bone of a skeleton and is found to have a C-14 decay rate of 200.0 decays min‐1. It is known that carbon from a living organism has a decay rate of 15.0 decays min‐1g‐1 and a half-life of 5,730 years. Find the age of the skeleton in years.
