The isotope 232Th decays to 208Pb by the emission of six alpha particles, with a half-life of 1.39 × 1010 years. Analysis of 1.00 kg of ocean sediment shows it to contain 7.4 mg of 232Th and 4.9 × 10-3 cm3 of gaseous helium at0°C and atmospheric pressure. Estimate the age of the sediment, assuming no loss or gain of thorium or helium from the sediment since its formation and assuming that the helium arose entirely from the decay of thorium.
(7) Carbon-14 dating is used in archeology to determine the age
of items that were alive or were made from living materials.
This works because the proportion of radioactive Carbon-14 to
the other isotopes of Carbon is relatively constant in the atmo-
sphere. (Volcanos constantly refresh the C-14 content.)
A wooden tool from an archeological site is found to contain
22 micrograms of C-14, whereas a similar hnount of modern
wood would contain 100 micrograms. How old is the tool?
