Would you use uranium- lead radiometric dating to find an igneous rocks age?
would you use uranium-lead radiometric dating to finnd an igneous rocks age
What do you use to measure years?
you could use the carbon-14 method or the uranium-lead method
What is uranium-dating?
What you are referring to is actually called Uranium-Lead dating, a form of radioactive decay dating based on how long it takes various Uranium isotopes to decay to their ultimate stable daughter Lead isotopes. By measuring the relative ratios it is possible to calculate the original quantity of Uranium in the sample, then knowing the amount currently present the period of time for the missing amount to decay gives the age of the sample.When gasoline used tetraethyl lead to boost octane ratings, lead contamination was often high enough that this method was very hard to get accurate results from (usually due to contamination of the lab facilities accidentally transferring to the sample).
How could a meteorite impact lead to the cooling of the Earth's climate?
A meteorite impact could lead to the cooling of the Earth's climate through the injection of large amounts of dust and debris into the atmosphere. This would block out sunlight and result in decreased solar radiation reaching the Earth's surface, causing a drop in temperature. Additionally, the impact could also release gases such as sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere, which could lead to the formation of sulfate aerosols that further reflect sunlight and contribute to the cooling effect.
What element is poisonous if ingested but is now replaced?
The element that is useful but poisonous when ingested is mercury. That is why there is concern over the safety of some fish consumption due to high mercury content.

Dating rocks age.
How long will earth be around?
The age of the Earth is 4.54 ± 0.05 billion years (4.54 × 109 years ± 1%). This age is based on evidence from radiometric age dating of meteorite material and is consistent with the ages of the oldest-known terrestrial and lunar samples. Following the scientific revolution and the development of radiometric age dating, measurements of lead in uranium-rich minerals showed that some were in excess of a billion years old
