Carbon dating is often used to estimate the age of once living organisms (which contain carbon). The first order reaction involves the change of 14C to 12C (two isotopes of carbon). An object is analysed and found that only 87.9% of the expected 14C is still present. Assume that the half-life of 14C is 5700 years. a) Calculate the rate constant for the reaction of 14C to 12C. b) What is the age of the object? c) What % 14C would be left after 8550 years?
