10 The half life for the radioactive decay of rubidium-87 to strontium-87 is 4.88 x 10 years. Suppose nuclear chemical analysis shows that there is 0.271 mmol of strontium-87 for every 1.000 mmol of rubidium-87 in a certain sample of rock. Calculate the age of the rock. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. Ar years x10
Using isotope ratios to radiodate Christ The haif life for the radioactive decay of rubidium-87 to strontium-87 is 4.88 x 100 years. Suppose nuclear chemical analysis shows that there is 0.586 mmol of strontium-87 for every 1.000 mmol of rubidium-87 in a certain sample of rock. Calculate the age of the rock.

11. Potassium-40 decays to argon-40 with a half-life of 1.27x10 y. What is the age of a rock in which the mass ratio of 4°Ar to oK is 4.2? [15 pt)
The half-life of Potassium-40 (K-40) decaying to Argon-40 (Ar-40) is 1.3 billion years. Suppose an igneous rock contains 105 million atoms of Ar-40 and 15 million atoms of K-40. (Assume here that no Ar-40 was present in the mineral when it formed and that no Ar-40 has escaped since formation). Using the number of half-lives from the previous question, how old is this rock? 2.6 billion years old 5.2 billion years old 3.9 billion years old 1.3 billion years old
The half-life for the radioactive decay of C-14 is 5730 years. How long will it take for 25% of the C-14 atoms in a sample of C-14 to decay. If a sample of C-14 initially contains 1.5 mmol of C-14, how many mmols will be left after 2255 years.
The half-life for the radioactive decay of C−14 is 5730 years. If a sample of C−14 initially contains 1.7 mmol of C−14, how many millimoles will be left after 2250 years? Express your answer using two significant figures.
