It contains 6 protons, 8 neutrons, and 6 electrons
One atom of carbon is one atom of carbon. One gram atom of carbon is the atomic weight (14 in the case of carbon) in grams, so it would be 14 grams of carbon.
Organic compounds always contain a carbon atom.
Organic.
Organic compounds can contain any element, as long as they bond on the sides of the carbon backbone of the molecule.

Carbon monoxide contain one atom of carbon and one atom of oxygen.
One atom of carbon is one atom of carbon. One gram atom of carbon is the atomic weight (14 in the case of carbon) in grams, so it would be 14 grams of carbon.
Organic compounds always contain a carbon atom.
Carbon-14 forms in the upper atmosphere, when a nitrogen atom is converted to an atom of carbon and atom of hydrogen by the addition of a neutron; 14N + 1n ---> 14C + 1H.
There are multiple types of carbon atoms (Carbon 12, Carbon 13, and Carbon 14).
A carbon atom contains 6 protons, 6 electrons, and either 6 (carbon-12), 7 (carbon-13), or 8 (carbon-14) neutrons. The atomic number of carbon is 6, which tells you the number of protons and electrons; the Atomic Mass - atomic number = number of neutrons.
They are looking for Carbon 14. Normal carbon is 12 but some carbon is an radioactive isotope called Carbon 14. Carbon 14 decays at a set rate. The amount left in artifacts that contain carbon can determine the age. Carbon-14 dating is a way of determining the found items up to about 50,000 years of age.
