UNO [17]

Answer:

B) All carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.

Explanation:

The false statement from the given choices is that all carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.

There is a phenomenon called isotopy in chemistry.

Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to the differences in the number of neutrons in their various nuclei.

  • These atoms of elements are called isotopes.
  • Carbon atoms generally have proton number of 6 which is the same as the atomic number.
  • As with all atoms, the mass number or atomic mass equals the number of protons and neutrons.

For the isotopes of carbon, their number of neutrons differs.

 For example:

            <em>¹²₆C                           ¹³₆C                        ¹⁴₆C</em>

The number of neutrons differs in the above isotopes.

 Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number;

    ¹²₆C  , number of neutrons  = 12 - 6  = 6

      ¹³₆C, number of neutrons  = 13 - 6  = 7

       ¹⁴₆C, number of neutrons = 14 - 6  = 8

Therefore, based on the concept of isotopy, all carbon atoms do not have 6 neutrons.

The NaCl crystal structure consists of alternating Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions lying next to each other in three dimensions. If the Na⁺ rad
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer : The radii of the two ions Cl⁻ ion and Na⁺ ion is, 181 and 102 pm respectively.

Explanation :

As we are given that the Na⁺ radius is 56.4% of the Cl⁻ radius.

Let us assume that the radius of Cl⁻ be, (x) pm

So, the radius of Na⁺ = x\times \frac{56.4}{100}=(0.564x)pm

In the crystal structure of NaCl, 2 Cl⁻ ions present at the corner and 1 Na⁺ ion present at the edge of lattice.

Thus, the edge length is equal to the sum of 2 radius of Cl⁻ ion and 2 radius of Na⁺ ion.

Given:

Distance between Na⁺ nuclei = 566 pm

Thus, the relation will be:

2\times \text{Radius of }Cl^-+2\times \text{Radius of }Na^+=\text{Distance between }Na^+\text{ nuclei}

2\times x+2\times 0.564x=566

2x+1.128x=566

3.128x=566

x=180.9\approx 181pm

The radius of Cl⁻ ion = (x) pm = 181 pm

The radius of Na⁺ ion = (0.564x) pm = (0.564 × 181) pm =102.084 pm ≈ 102 pm

Thus, the radii of the two ions Cl⁻ ion and Na⁺ ion is, 181 and 102 pm respectively.

Why is the composition of Earth's atmosphere different from the composition of the atmospheres of Venus and Mars? A. Venus, Mars
rewona [7]

Answer:

they all have different chemical compositions from earth

Venus is more filled with carbon dioxide and nitrogen

earth is filled more with oxygen and nitrogen

mars is filled more with carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide

so ur answer is C

it cant be B as scientists and NASA are still in the look out for life, D has nothing to do with chemicals and atmosphere, and its not A cuz they all dont have the same similiar chemical.

Kryger [21]
When two carbon atoms are covalently bonded together, they try to achieve an octet structure so their electrons are 4 in number while each of them donates their remaining 2 so they end up sharing 4.
