Chapter 25.4, Problem 3CYU
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The approximate age of the tree has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Radiocarbon dating: The dynamic equilibrium exists in all living organism by exhaling or inhaling, maintain the same ratio of 12C and 14C that takes in. when the living organism dies, the intake of 14C stops and it’s the ratio no longer exhibits equilibrium; undergoes radioactive decay.

Half-life period: The time required to reduce to half of its initial value.

Formula used to calculate half-life:

t1/2=0.693kwhere,kis rate constant.(or)ln[N]t- ln[N]0= -kt

Would the following organic synthesis occur in one step? Add any missing products, required catalysts, inorganic reagents, and other important conditions. Please include a detailed explanation and drawings showing how the reaction may occur in one step.
This organic molecule is dissolved in an acidic aqueous solution: OH OH A short time later sensitive infrared spectroscopy reveals the presence of a new C = O stretch absorption. That is, there must now be a new molecule present with at least one C = O bond. In the drawing area below, show the detailed mechanism that could convert the molecule above into the new molecule.
