Chapter 11, Problem 2CGP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: We have to explain the radio isotopic dating of the isotope 40K, the radioactive isotope of potassium.

Concept introduction: Radioisotopes have been used in physical, chemical, and biological systems because of their wide range of applications. Radioactive dating involves the process of dating materials such as rocks, in which trace amounts of the radioactive isotopes are present. Radioactive isotopes can be easily detected because of their decay products that can be traced to get information of the movement of these isotopes in complicated systems.
