Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

“Technique of radiocarbon dating band how it corrected for the changes in atmospheric concentrations of C-14 and ages” should be identified.

Concept introduction:

Method for measuring the age of organic remains which depends on the decay rate of carbon 14 is said to be Radiocarbon dating. Carbon 14 is the radioactive isotope of carbon having 6 protons and 8 neutrons in the atomic nucleus. The radioactive C-14 nuclide can be represented as 6C14. The age of any specimen with organic content like fossil, plants, dead bodies, etc. can be determined by radiocarbon dating.

Radiocarbon dating is a technique for calculating the age of organic matter that left is depends on the rate of decay of carbon 14. Carbon 14 is the radioactive isotope of carbon having 6 protons and 8 neutrons in the atomic nucleus. The radioactive C-14 nuclide can be represented as 6C14. The age of any specimen with organic content like fossil, plants, dead bodies, etc. can be determined by radiocarbon dating.

" is The structure of the bicarbonate (hydrogen carbonate) ion, HCO3-, HCO3 best described as a hybrid of several contributing resonance forms, two of which are shown here. HO :0: :Ö: HO + Bicarbonate is crucial for the control of body pH (for example, blood pH: 7.4). A more self-indulgent use is in baking soda, where it serves as a source of CO2 CO₂ 2 gas, which gives bread and pastry their fluffy constituency. (i) Draw at least one additional resonance form. = (ii) Using curved "electron-pushing" arrows, show how these Lewis structures may be interconverted by movement of electron pairs. (iii) Determine which form or forms will be the major contributor(s) to the real structure of bicarbonate, explaining your answer on the basis of the criteria in Section 1-5.
