carbon 14 half life is
5730 after 1000 year is 2g. what is the original amount. the answer is 2.26g. i need to know the formula. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Amount now = (Original amount)*(1/2)^(t/5730)
2 = P (1/2)^(1000/5730)
2= P (.8861)
P=2.2572...
Original amount was 2.2572.. grams
