Answer:
Explanation:
= Half-life of carbon = 5700 years
t = Time at which the remaining mass is to be found = 10400 years
= Initial mass of carbon = 11 g
Decay constant is given by
Amount of mass remaining is given by
The amount of the substance that remains after 10400 years is .
Answer:
C. The half-life of C-14 is about 40,000 years.
Explanation:
The only false statement from the options is that the half-life of C-14 is 40,000yrs.
The half-life of an isotope is the time it takes for half of a radioactive material to decay to half of its original amount. C-14 has an half-life of 5730yrs. This implies that during every 5730yrs, C-14 will reduce to half of its initial amount.
- All living organisms contain both stable C-12 and the unstable isotope of C-14
- The lower the C-14 compared to the C-12 ratio in an organism, the older it is.

Explanation:
2SrO + 4NO2 + O. The thermal decomposition of strontium nitrate to produce strontium oxide, nitrogen dioxide and oxygen. This reaction takes place at a temperature of over 570°C
Iron(II) oxide also refers to a family of related non-stoichiometric compounds, which are typically iron deficient with compositions ranging from Fe0.84O to Fe0.95O.
