In radiocarbon dating the carbon-14 levels in the object being dated are compared with?
In radiocarbon dating, the carbon-14 levels in the object being dated are compared with _____.
Which of the following terms describe the process that is used to determine the age of an object by measuring the amount of a certain radioisotope remaining in that object?
The general term is "radiometric dating. If the isotope is carbon, then it is "carbon dating"
Can you give a sentence with carbon dating?
Carbon dating is a method of telling approximately how old an ancient object is. Here are some sentences.The scientists used carbon dating and decided that the mummy was 10,000 years old.Carbon dating is not perfect, but it can give you a rough idea.We studied carbon dating in class today.
What is the limite for carbon dating?
About 58,000 years. After that amount of time, there will no longer be enough radioactive carbon in an object to measure. However, other radiometric dating methods can date much older materials.
How is the age of an object determined in radio carbon dating?
Carbon-14 breaks down into Carbon-12 at a measurable rate. All the Carbon-14 in an object is fixed once it is finished(or dead) and then it begins to decay. So to determine the age you need to know(or guess) what the ratio of 14 to 12 was to begin with and see how much Carbon-14 is degraded to get the age.
In radiocarbon dating the carbon-14 levels in the object being dated are compared with?
In radiocarbon dating, the carbon-14 levels in the object being dated are compared with _____.
How do scientists determine how old objects are by?
Archeologists determine how old an object is, by using Carbon Dating.

How does carbon 14 find the age of an object?
it is innacurate carbon dating gets in accurate after about 1,000 years
What information is obtained from radioactive dating?
The age of an object that was once living.
Give an example of an isotope used in dating old objects?
cardon-14 by the use of carbon dating which is a process in which they use the half life of carbon to calculate the date of an object
The process of figuring out if an object is older or younger than another?
facebook or carbon dating =]
Computers can determine the age of an object?
Computers can determine the age of an object through a carbon dating, This is also known as fission-track dating and is commonly used by anthropologists and archaeologists.
What is the calculation of the age of an object by measuring the proportions of the radioactive isotopes or certain elements?
Carbon-14 dating is the measurement of an object's age by comparing the amount of carbon-14 to the amount of carbon-12 and carbon-13 present in the sample.
