The most abundant of all of the isotopes of an element will be the one who's mass the mass of element is closest to. In this case, the mass of atomic carbon is closest to the mass of carbon-12.
Thus, Carbon-12 is the most abundant isotope.
A physical property is any property that is measurable whose value describes a state of a physical system.A chemical property is any of a material's properties that becomes evident during, or after, a chemical reaction; that is, any quality that can be established only by changing a substance's chemical identity.Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, although all isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons in each atom.The periodic table is a tabular arrangement of the chemical elements, ordered by their atomic number (number of protons), electron configurations, and recurring chemical properties. A period is the name given to a horizontal row of the periodic table.a group is a column of elements in the periodic table of the chemical elements.
Answer:
Radon
Explanation:
One element that will have similar property as an atom with 118 protons is Radon because it will belong to the p-block and the noble gas group.
The element will follow atomic number 117 which is already in the 7th group on the periodic table.
- Generally, on the periodic table, elements in the same group will have the same chemical property.
- The valency of most elements determines their chemical behavior.
- Since our mystery element is in the 8th group, noble gas group, it will mostly behave like any of the elements in the group.
Answer:
You need to heat the mixture to 78.37°C
Explanation:
In distillation, you can separate 2 or more compounds based on their difference in boiling points.
In a mixture of ethanol and water, in theory, you need to heat the mixture to 78.37°C. In this temperature, the ethanol must be evaporated and then condensed in the receiving flask.
Answer:
i. Atomic radius of an atom is defined as the total distance from the nucleus to the outermost shell of the atom.
On moving from left to right ( Mg, K) in a period, more and more electrons get added up in the same shell and the attraction between the last electron and nucleus increases, which results in the shrinkage of size of an atom. Thus, decreasing the atomic radii of the atom on moving towards right of the periodic table.
As moving from top to bottom, there is an addition of shell around the nucleus and the outermost shell gets far away from the nucleus and hence, the distance between the nucleus and outermost shell increases.
Thus the order of atomic radii is : Ca > Mg > K
ii. The energy required to remove the last valence electron from isolated gaseous atom (first ionization energy) increases as we move from left to right in a period. It decreases on moving from top to bottom.
Thus the order of first ionization energy is : K > Mg > Ca
iii. The chemical properties depend on the valence elctrons and as the elements Mg and Ca both have two valence electrons , they have same chemical properties.
