Carbon Dating GEOLOGY A geologist examining a meteorite estimates that it contains only about 10% as much Sodium-22 as it would have contained when it reached the surface of the Earth. How long ago did the meteorite reach the surface of the Earth? Understand The formula for the decay of Sodium-22 is y = ae–kt. You want to find how long ago the meteorite reached Earth. Plan Let a be the initial amount of Sodium-22 in the meteorite. The amount y that remains after t years is 10% of a or 0.10a. Example 2
Carbon Dating Solve y = ae–0.2666t Formula for the decay of Sodium-22 0.1a = ae–0.2666t Replace y with 0.1a. 0.1 = e–0.2666t Divide each side by a.
