Hello There!

No, it is not possible.
If it is isotopes you are referring to, then they have the same atomic number. 
This means they have the same number of protons and electrons.
Only the mass number is different.
This would mean the atom has a different number of neutrons.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

Which of the four substances listed will dissolve in water and why?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Sugar, sodium chloride, and hydrophilic proteins are all substances that dissolve in water. Oils, fats, and certain organic solvents do not dissolve in water because they are hydrophobic.

And, water is called the "universal solvent" because it dissolves more substances than any other liquid. ... Water molecules have a polar arrangement of the oxygen and hydrogen atoms—one side (hydrogen) has a positive electrical charge and the other side (oxygen) had a negative charge.

I don't see any options so there i hope it helps .

Pyrite is iron sulfide and it is a non-metal.

  • They have very similar appearance to such an extent that pyrite is widely called the fool's gold.
  • To distinguish between the two, we simply explore their metallic properties.
  • Gold is malleable. Pyrite is not. It will crumble under pressure.

Which of these reactions successfully models a nuclear fission reaction?
user100 [1]

Answer:

OPTION B

Explanation:

Nuclear "fission" is the breakdown of the nucleus of a radioactive element into two or more nuclei accompanied by the release of energy. I guess that pretty much explains it.
