Question
Chapter 10.3, Problem 10.16P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The age of the artifact which has 1/8 of the amount of C-14 when compared to C-12 should be estimated.
Concept introduction:
The half-life of radioactive materials is based on the disintegration of one-half of the atoms of the radioactive material. This estimation is used by scientists to determine the age of organic materials. Mostly, it is carbon-14 that is used to estimate.
