Question

What are radio active carbons?How it is useful in detecting age of fossil fuels?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Carbon-12 is the most common isotope found in the living being.

But cosmic rays from the universe convert some nitrogen-14 atom in a living body to carbon-14.

Carbon-14 atoms have nuclei which are unstable.

C-14 atoms will undergo alpha decay and produce atoms of N-14.

Carbon-14 dating can be used to determine the age of artefacts which are not more than 50,000 years old.

Carbon dating is a prosses used to determine the age of many things by comparing the ratio of carbon-12 and carbon-14 atoms.
