A fossilized leaf contains 18% of its normal amount of carbon 14. How old is the fossil (to the nearest year)? Use 5600 years as the half-life of carbon 14 13,829 1600 35,538 23,309

The age of the fossilized leaf is 13829 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

where,

k = rate constant  

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant = 100

a - x = amount left after decay process =  

a) for completion of half life:  

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

b) for finding the age

The age of the fossilized leaf is 13829 years.
