Chemistry

Juliette [100K]3 years ago

Answer:

Because isotopes of the same element only differ by a few neutrons. An example is carbon-12 and carbon-14 isotopes which differ by 2 neutrons in their atomic nuclei.

Explanation:

Isotopes of the same element share the same chemical properties because they bear the same number of electrons (remember electrons are what are involved in chemical reactions). Therefore one can't use chemical methods to separate isotopes.

Separating isotopes require mechanical separation using ultra-high-speed centrifuges with very high-resolution power such that the little mass difference between the isotopes (due to differences in neutron numbers) can be used to separate them.

How many moles of c6h12o6 are consumed if 6 moles of o2 are consumed
Mrac [35]
C₆H₁₂O₆, or glucose, is oxidized in the presence of oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water. The reaction equation for this is:
C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O
Therefore, if 6 moles of oxygen are consumed, we can see from the equation that one mole of C₆H₁₂O₆ will be consumed.
