The Half-life of Pennies Lab Can you use pennies to demonstrate "decay?
Imagine existing more than 5,000 years and still having more than 5,000 to go! That is exactly what the
unstable element carbon-14 does. Carbon-14 is a special unstable element used in the absolute dating
of material that was once alive, such as fossil bones. Every 5,730 years, half of the carbon-14 in a fossil
specimen decays or breaks down into a more stable element. In the following lab you will see how
pennies can show the same kind of "decay."
Materials • 100 pennies • large container with a cover
Procedure a. Place 100 pennies in a large, covered container. Shake the container several times and
remove the cover. Carefully empty the container on a flat surface, making sure the pennies don't roll
away. b. Remove all the coins that have the "head" side of the coin turned upward. Record the number
of pennies removed and the number of pennies remaining in the data table below.
