Archaeologists can determine the age of artifacts made of wood or bone by measuring the amount of the radioactive isotope 14C present in the object. The amount of isotope decreases in a first-order process. If 28.2% of the original amount of 14C is present in a wooden tool at the time of analysis, what is the age of the tool? The half-life of 14C is 5730 yr. Give your answer in scientific notation. t = time x 10(exponent) units
The gas phase decomposition of nitrogen dioxide at 383 °C NO₂(g) → NO(g) + ½ 0₂ (9) is second order in NO2.
