A fear molar from a mammoth skeleton is dated using a measurement of its ¹4C content. Carbon from the tooth is chemically extracted and formed into benzene. The benzene sample is placed in a shielded chamber. Decays from the sample come at an average rate of 11.5 counts per minute. A modern benzene sample of the exact same size gives 54.9 counts per minute. The age of the skeleton was found to be 12,900 yr old. Y ▼ Part A What is the mass of ¹2C in the sample tested?
