After 17.1 thousand years, what percentage of the original carbon-14 would be left in an organism’s remains? After 17.1 thousand years, what percentage of the original carbon-14 would be left in an organism’s remains? 25% 17.1% 12.5% 6.25%

12.5%

Explanation:

Initial percentage of carbon 14 = 100%

Final percentage = ?

Time passed = 17.1 * 1000 years = 17100 years

Half life of carbon 14 = 5,730 years.

So how many Half lives are in 17100 years?

Number of Half lives = Time passed /  Half life = 3.18 ≈ 3

First Half life;

100% --> 50%

Second Half life;

50% --> 25%

Third Half life ;

25% --> 12.5%

im pretty sure its b

hydrocarbons are organic compounds that contain only hydrogens and carbons. they can be saturated (those which contain only carbon-carbon single bonds) or unsaturated (those which contain carbon-carbon double or triple bonds) in nature. hydrocarbons can undergo several reactions like substitution, elimination etc.  

on substituting one or more hydrogen atoms in hydrocarbon it results in the formation of haloalkane. as the halogen atoms are large compared to the carbon and hydrogen atoms, due to which the molecular weight increases and the bond become polar because of presence electronegative halogen atom and results in the increase in boiling point of the haloalkane.

thus, the correct option is (b) that is the boiling point of the new compound increases on substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon.
