A sample of carbon-14 has a half-life of 5730 years. If the mass of the carbon-14 is 455 g today, what will be the mass of the carbon-14 in the sample in 17190 years?
Ln(Nt /N0 ) = -kt t1/2 = 0.693/k so ln( N t /455 g) = - 0.693/5730 yr * 17190 yr Nt = 56.9 g Method 2: 17190/5730 = 3, so three half lives Nt = (½) 3 N0 = (1/2) 3 * 455 g = 56.9 g

Explain fusion and fission
Fusion is when small nuclei smash together to make a larger nucleus Fission is when the large nucleus splits into two smaller nuclei
