Equal masses of two samples of charcoal A and B are burnt separately and the resulting carbon dioxide are collected in two vessels. The radioactivity of ^14 C is measured for both the gas samples. The gas from the charcoal A gives 2100 counts per week and the gas from the charcoal B gives 1400 counts per week. Find the age difference between the two samples. Half-life of ^14 C = 5730 y .

An experiment is performed to measure the molar heat capacity of a gas at constant pressure using Regnault's method. The gas is initially contained in a cubical reservoir of size 40 cm xx 40 cm xx 40 cm xx at 600 kPa at 27^0C . A part of the gas is brought out, heated to 100^0C and is passed through a calorimeter at constant pressure. The water equivalent of the calorimeter and its contents increases from 20^0C to 30^0C during the experiment and the pressure in the reservoir decresases to 525 kPa . Specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J kg^(-1) K^(1). Calculate the molar heat capacity Cp from these data.
