: A certain container has a 0.56 g of 90Sr. Calculate the activity of the
material in units of curies? (77.3 ci)
(7) Carbon-14 dating is used in archeology to determine the age
of items that were alive or were made from living materials.
This works because the proportion of radioactive Carbon-14 to
the other isotopes of Carbon is relatively constant in the atmo-
sphere. (Volcanos constantly refresh the C-14 content.)
A wooden tool from an archeological site is found to contain
22 micrograms of C-14, whereas a similar hnount of modern
wood would contain 100 micrograms. How old is the tool?
