Archeologists near the Dead Sea in 1998 reported the discovery of a substance made from collagen that they believe ancient people used as glue. A sample of newly prepared collagen exhibits 15.2 disintegrations per minute per gram (15.2d/min/g) of carbon. The 14C decay rate for the sample of ancient glue was found to be 5.60d/min/g. What is the age of the glue. Disintegration of 14C is a first order process with a rate constant 1.209 x 10-4 year-1. a. 8000yrs. b. 7985yrs. c. 8437 yrs. d. 6575yrs. e. 10002yrs.
