If two protons are added to carbon, the chemical identity changes to oxygen, which is two spaces over horizontally on the periodic table. The number of protons is what we call the atomic number (Z), and this is what defines the identity of an element. Since we also added two neutrons, this is simply oxygen, or oxygen-16, the most abundant isotope of oxygen.

Three substances A, B, and C melt at 00C,500C and -1500C
Drupady [299]
Answer:

That information is better presented and analyzed in a table.

This table shows you all the information and the answers:


Substance         melting point   boiling point    room temperature    conclusion
                                    °C                  °C                      °C                    (state)


A                                  0                    100                    25                    liquid

B                                  50                  200                    25                    solid
C                               -150                   10                     25                    gas

Explanation:

1) Substance A at 25° is above the melting point and below the boiling point, then it is liquid (just like water)


2) Substance B at 25°C is below the melting point, so it is solid.

3) Substance C at 25°C is above the boiling point, so it is gas.
