Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for not using carbon dating method to date objects that are only a few years old should be explained.

Concept introduction:

  • Spontaneous disintegration: radioactive material contain nuclides which under goes spontaneous disintegration.
  • This process is the accompanied by the emission of one or more than one types of ionizing radiation like alpha ,beta, neutron, particles and gamma rays are disintegrate
  • Radio active life-it refers to the amount of time taken by completion of half of its original isotope to decay. The rate of decay is a fixed rate called half-life.
  • Half-life used in carbon dating-technique for the age calculation of dead wood fossil, monument old tree etc.
  • The half-life period is determined by considering carbon dating technique.
  • Carbon dating uses the half-life of carbon-14 to find the approximate age of an object. Its may be 40.000 year old or younger.

Don't used hand raiting and don't used Ai solution
when 15.00 mL of 3.00 M NaOH was mixed in a caliorimeter with 13.50 mL of 3.00 M HCL, both initally at room temperature (22.00°C), the temperature increased 30.00°C. the resultant salt solution had a mass of 28.50g and a specific heat capacity of 3.74 J K^-1 g^-1. what is the heat capcity of the calorimeter in (J/ °C)? note: the molar enthalpy of neutralization per mole of HCl is -55.84kJ mol^-1
