How can you differ from cis- and trans potassium dioxalatodiaquachromat?

According to studies, Cis and Trans potassium dioxalatodiaquachromat differ by the trans potassium form being less soluble than that of Cis, therefore it differs in chemistry relating to the absorption spectrum.

An artifact is found that some are claiming is 30000 years old 3.1 percent of the original carbon14 is present The halflife of carbon14 is 5730 year?

Yes, but the dating is only off a little (500 years or so).


What Limitations are there of using carbon14 to date rocks?

The main limitations of using Carbon14 dating to find the age of something that is carbon base are firstly the possibility that carbon may be absorbed by some things making it more difficult to get an absolutely accurate age and secondly, with Carbon14 only having a half life of 5,568 years the maximum theoretical limit for detection is 100,000 years.


How does potassium-19 differ from potassium-41?

The nomenclature "potassium-19" is not commonly used because it is redundant. The 19 in potassium-19 would indicate the number of protons in potassium. All isotopes of potassium have 19 protons. Therefore 19 is known as the atomic number of potassium. Potassium-41 is one of the three naturally occurring isotopes of potassium. It has 19 protons and 22 neutrons, giving it an atomic mass number of 41.


What is the mass number of carbon14?

Carbon is a non metallic element. Mass number of it is 12.
