(iii) Coal containing `.^(14)C`,
(iv) Cellulose conatining `.^(14)C` os:

A

more in `.^(14)CO_(2)`

B

more in coal containing `.^(14)C`

C

more in `.^(14)C_(6) H_(12) O_(6)`

D

Same in all species.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`(d)`

`t_(1//2)` is independent of all external factors and is constant for a given species.
