Abstract

Research using the method of LSC (Liquid Scintillation Carbon) in determining the age of coral reefs in the Selayar islands has been carried out. The samples of coral reefs were taken between the tides. Sample preparation was carried out physically and chemically using an acid-base mixture solution: NaOH, H2O2, HClO4 and HCl produced coral samples that looked whiter with weight reduction of up to 1.6%. Carbonate is separated into CO2 by reaction with 10% HCl and absorption with KOH 1 M as K2CO3. Total carbon is determined by the titration method which produces 0.0542 g of total carbon sample. Specific activity of 14C measured by enumeration with LSC is 12.0542 DPM/gC. The age of coral reef samples obtained from sample specific activity data was 1971,728 years

Abstract

Determination Of Age Of Coral Reefs On Panikiang Island, Barru District, Spermonde Islands Through Measurement Activity 14C Using LSC (Liquid Scintillation Counting) Method. This research was using a sample of coral reefs taken from the Panikiang Island, Barru, Spermonde Islands. This research has been carried out by using sample preparation with physic and chemical. Sample preparation was done physically and chemically. Chemical preparation was carried out by using a mixture of NaOH with 30% H2O2 followed by a mixture of HClO4 with 30% H2O2, and finally with HCl solution to produce a clean sample with a weight reduction of 7.94%. Absorption of CO2 through reaction with HCl 10% and NH4OH as Carbosorb .produced K2CO3. The total carbon in the sample solution is 0.2496 gram sobtained through titration method.  Radiocarbon dating method based on the measurement of the specific activity of the samples obtained from the results of counts LSC (Liquid Scintilation Counter) Hidex 300 SL.The specific activity of coral sample is 14.68 ± 4.04 DPM/gC. Age of coral sample which were calculated from the specific activity were 342.04 ± 37.66 years.
