Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2.78CP
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The age of the given canoe sample.
Introduction:
Radioactive decay is the emission of a nuclear radiations from the unstable nucleus. Isotopes whose nuclei are unstable and can be stabilized by emitting radiations from the nucleus are known as the radioisotopes. The energy released by the radioactive decay of the nucleus is known as nuclear radiation.
