<span>Isotopes are atoms of a particular element that contain a different number of neutrons.
An atom or element have same number of protons and electrons, but when there is a change in number of neutrons, this is called isotope of that element. There are many elements that have their isotopes like carbon have three isotopes Carbon 12, 13 and 14.</span>
Answer:
The reaction is exothermic (option 4)
Explanation:
P4 + 5O2 → P4O10 + 712 kcal
In chemical reactions heat can be absorbed or released:
⇒in the first case, when heat is absorbed, this is called an endothermic reaction. The products have more energy than the reactants. The reaction requires or absorbs energy from it's surroundings. That means that in this reaction energy , in the form of heat, will be absorbed by the reactants.
⇒ when heat is released, this is called an exothermic reaction. The reactants have more energy than the products. The reaction gives or releases energy to it's surroundings. That means that in this reaction energy , in the form of heat, will be released by the reactants.
in the case of P4 + 5O2 → P4O10 + 712 kcal
We notice that on the right side, which is the product side, there is a positive amount of energy. This means that the energy is released by the the reactants, in this reaction. <u>The reaction is exothermic.</u>

Answer:
0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).
Explanation:
<em>d = m/V,</em>
where, d is the density of the material (g/cm³).
m is the mass of the material (m = 28 g).
V is the volume of the material (V = 63.0 cm³).
<em>∴ d = m/V </em>= (28 g)/(63.0 cm³) = <em>0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).</em>
Answer:- C. H
Explanations:- Reduction is gain of electron. In other words we could say that decrease in oxidation number is reduction.
As per the rules, oxidation number of hydrogen in its compounds is +1(except metal hydrides) and the oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2.
The oxidation number in elemental form is zero.
In , the oxidation number of H is +1 and oxidation number of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in is -1. On product side, the oxidation number of hydrogen in is zero and in the oxidation number of H is +1 and that of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in is 0.
From above data, Oxidation number of O is -2 on both sides so it is not reduced.
Oxidation number of Cl is changing from -1 to 0 which is oxidation.
Oxidation number of H is changing from +1 to 0 which is reduction.
So, the right choice is C.H
Answer:- oxygen.
Explanations:- The electronic configuration is given and we are asked to figure out the electrically neutral atom that will have the electron configuration, .
The sum of electrons for this electron configuration is 8. If we look at the periodic table then 8 is the atomic number of oxygen.
So, the electrically neutral atom for the given electron configuration is oxygen.
