1. Use the table above. Scientists find a piece of wood that is thought to be from an ancient fire circle. They find that the wood contains an amount of carbon-14 (14C) that is approximately 1/16 of the current atmospheric 14C levels. 14C has a t1/2 of 5,750 years. (5 pts)How many half lives is represented by 1/16? How many years ago was the tree chopped down to be used for firewood?If you started with 1,000,000 carbon-14 atoms, how many atoms would remain in the wood? Please help, don't send some obscure link, thanks so much!

The combustion of methane, ch4, releases 890.4kj/mol. that is, when one mole of methane is burned,890.4 kj are given off to the surroundings. this meansthat the products have 890.4 kj less than the reactants.thus, ah for the reaction = - 890.4 kj. a negative symbolforah indicates an exothermic reaction.ch (g) + 20 (g)> co2 (g) + 2 h0 (1); ah = - 890.4 kga) how much energy is given off when 2.00 mol of ch,are burned? b) how much energy is released when 22.4g of ch. areburned?
