A fossil was analyzed and determined to have a carbon-14 level that is 80 % that of living organisms. The half-life of C-14 is 5730 years. How old is the fossil?
B) An unknown radioactive substance has a half-life of 3.20 hours. If 47.3 g of the substance is currently present, what mass A0 was present 8.00 hours ago? Express your answer with the appropriate units. C) Americium-241 is used in some smoke detectors. It is an alpha emitter with a half-life of 432 years. How long will it take in years for 30.0 % of an Am-241 sample to decay? Express your answer with the appropriate units. D) A fossil...
Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5730 years. In a plant fossil, you find that the C has decayed to 1/320 of the oniginal amount. How long ago was this plant alive? Express your answer numerically in years. View Available Hint(s) years
In the parts that follow, use the following abbreviations for time: Measure of time Units of time minutes min hours h days d years yr a) You are using a Geiger counter to measure the activity of a radioactive substance over the course of several minutes. If the reading of 400. counts has diminished to 100. counts after 93.0 minutes , what is the half-life of this substance? Express your answer with the appropriate units. t(1/2) = ______ b) An...
researchers find a fossil of a large ma Researchers find a fossil of a large mammal that contains one-sixteenth the amount of carbon-14 that is preset in living organisms. Using carbon-14 dating, about how old is this fossil? Recall that carbon-14 has a half-life 01 5730 years. 11,460 years 17,190 years 22,920 years 91.680 years

a) You are using a Geiger counter to measure the activity of a radioactive substance over the course of several minutes. If the reading of 400. counts has diminished to 100. counts after 76.2 minutes , what is the half-life of this substance? b)An unknown radioactive substance has a half-life of 3.20 hours . If 14.6 g of the substance is currently present, what mass A0 was present 8.00 hours ago? c) Americium-241 is used in some smoke detectors. It...
Review | Constants Periodic Table In the parts that follow, use the following abbreviations for time If a substance is radioactive, this means that the nucleus is unstable and will therefore decay by any number of processes (alpha decay, beta decay, etc.). The decay of radioactive elements follows first-order kinetics. Therefore, the rate of decay can be described by the same integrated rate equations and half-life equations that are used to describe the rate of first-order chemical reactions: Measure of...
The radioactive isotope carbon-14 is used for radiocarbon dating. The half-life of carbon-14 is years. A wooden artifact in a museum has a count that is times that found in living organisms. Estimate the age of the artifact. The radioactive isotope carbon-14 1s used for radiocarbon dating. The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 103 years. 14 A wooden artifact in a museum has a C count that is 3.13 x 10 times that found in living organisms Estimate the age...
