Ash remains from an ancient fire pit was discovered to have only 12.5% of the original Carbon-14 it once contained. If the half-life of Carbon-14 is 5,730 years,

how long ago was this pit used? Show or describe how you solved this. *



Agroup of students is studying convection currents. they fill two identical balloons with the same amount of helium. one balloon is placed in a freezer and the other in an area with warm air. after 10 minutes, the balloons are released from a height of 1 meter. which of the following do the students most likely observe? a. the balloons both rise. the cold balloon is larger than the warm balloon. b. the balloons rise at the same rate. both balloons are the same size. c. the warm balloon expands and rises. the cold balloon shrinks and sinks. d. the cold balloon expands and rises. the warm balloon shrinks and sinks.

Consider three unlabeled bottles, each contain small pieces of one of the following metals. - magnesium - sodium - silver the following reagents are used for identifying the metals. - pure water - a solution of 1.0 molar hcl - a solution of concentrated hno3 (a) which metal can be easily identified because it is much softer than the other two? describe a chemical test that distinguishes this metal from the other two, using only one of the reagents above. write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs. (b) one of the other two metals reacts readily with the hcl solution. identify the metal and write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs when this metal is added to the hcl solution. use the table of standard reduction potentials (attached) to account for the fact that this metal reacts with hcl while the other does not. (c) the one remaining metal reacts with the concentrated hno3 solution. write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs. (d) the solution obtained in (c) is diluted and a few drops of 1 m hcl is added. describe what would be observed. write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs.

Plz me ! 1 which of earths spheres contains most of its mass? a atmosphere b hydrosphere c geosphere* d biosphere 2 erosion and weathering are examples of which types of forces? a constructive forces b destructive forces* c gravitational forces d inertia-related forces 3 which of the following statements about earths atmosphere is true? a earths atmosphere contains 78% water vapor which is essentail to life b earths atmosphere contains 21% oxygen c earths atmosphere contains carbon dioxide which all life forms require d earths atmosphere allows radiation from the sun to pass through it and warm earths surface* 4 the strenght of the force of gravity between two objects is determined by which of the following factors? select all that apply a the messes of the objects* b the distance between the objects* c the volumes of the objects d the surface area of the objects 5 earth and moon are kept in there respective orbits due to the influence of a inertia b gravity c gravity and inertia* d neither gravity or inertia if you answer all questions right i will give
