Studying the decay of radioactive isotopes in dead organisms helps scientists to identify fossilized remains. The ratio of C-12 to C-14 in the atmosphere is 1 x 1012. The table shows this ratio inside the body of three organisms. C12/C14 Ratio
Organism C12/C14 Ratio
A 1 x 1012
B 2 x 1012
C 4 x 1012

What can most likely be concluded from the above information?
Only Organism A is dead, and Organism C is older than Organism B.
Only Organism A is dead, and Organism B is older than Organism C.
Both Orgamism B and Organism C are dead, but Organism C has been dead longer than Organism B.
Both Orgamism B and Organism C are dead, but Organism B has been dead longer than Organism C.

A100 kmol/h stream that is 97 mole% carbon tetrachloride (ccl4) and 3% carbon disulfide (cs2) is to be recovered from the bottom of a distillation column. the feed to the column is 16 mole% cs2 and 84% ccl4, and 2% of the ccl4 entering the column is contained in the overhead stream leaving the top of the column. calculate the mass and mole fractions of ccl4 in the overhead stream, and determine the molar flow rates of ccl4 and cs2 in the overhead and feed streams. 12. mw_ccla- 153.82; mw_cs2-76.14.

The two naturally occurring isotopes of chlorine are 35cl (34.969 amu, 75.77%) and 37cl (36.966 amu, 24.23%). the two naturally occurring isotopes of bromine are 79br (78.918 rm amu, 50.69%) and 81br (80.916 amu, 49.31%). chlorine and bromine combine to form bromine monochloride, brcl. 1. how many peaks will be present in a mass spectrum for brcl? the four combinations of molecule possible given these four isotopes are: 81br37cl, 81br35cl, 79br37cl, and 79br35cl. 2. what are the masses of the four different brcl molecules? express the masses using six significant figures, in decreasing numeric order (highest to lowest), separated by commas.
