Awooden object from the site of an ancient temple has a carbon-14 activity of 10 counts/min compared with a reference piece of wood cut today that has an activity of 40 counts/min. if the half-life for carbon-14 is 5730 y, what is the age of the ancient wood object? express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Suppose you got a low yield of benzoin from your benzoin condensation reaction and thus only have 0.300 g of benzoin to use as the starting material for this reaction. how much concentrated nitric acid should you add? (concentrated nitric acid is 15.8 m). write your answer in the form x.xx ml

The reactions shown here can be combined to make the overall reaction c(s) + h2o(g) ⇌ co(g) + h2(g) by reversing some and/or dividing all the coefficients by a number. a. c(s) + o2(g) → co2(g) k=1.363×10^69 b. 2 h2(g) + o2(g) → 2 h2o(g) k=1.389×10^80 c. 2co(g) + o2 (g) → 2 co2(g) k=1.477×10^90
