SOLUTION: The half-life of C-12 is about 3,700 years. How long will it be before a 2.35g sample of C-12 decays to 1.46g of C-12?
I have no clue...please help.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! the half-life equation for this situation is ___ 1.46 = 2.35 (1/2)^(t / 3700) ___ where "t" is the decay time in years
