An isotope of carbon has 8 neutrons. What is the correct hyphenated symbol for this isotope?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Rom4ik [11]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Carbon-14 or C-14

Explanation:

Since the isotope is a carbon isotope, it means the the atomic number of the isotope is 6.

The atomic number of an element is the proton number.

Therefore, the isotope has a proton number of 6

Now we need to obtain the mass number of isotope in order to write the symbol of the isotope. This is illustrated below:

Mass number = Proton +Neutron

Proton = 6

Neutron = 8

Mass number = 6 + 8

Mass number = 14

Therefore, the symbol of the isotope is carbon-14 or C-14

which of the following testable questions will provide evidence that elements in the same group have similar properties?
Usimov [2.4K]

The testable question which will provide evidence that elements in the same group have similar properties is valency

<h3>What is the valency?</h3>

In essence, how many electrons are present in their outermost shell.

Valency and Groups in the periodic table, elements are arranged in order of their atomic numbers and hence, the periodic table is a systematic arrangement of elements in an array of vertical columns called Groups and horizontal arrays called Periods.

  • Complete question here:

which of the following testable questions will provide evidence that elements in the same group have similar properties A. Valency B. Orbit C. Group D. Period

Since, the reactive capacities of elements is dependent on the number of electrons on its outermost shell, we can conclude on this note that, Elements in the same group have similar properties.

.) Neon and HF have approximately the same molecular masses. a.)Explain why the boiling points of Neon and HF differ b.)Compare
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

a) The magnitude of intermolecular forces in compounds affects the boiling points of the compound. Neon has London dispersion forces as the only intermolecular forces operating in the substance while HF has dipole dipole interaction and strong hydrogen bonds operating in the molecule hence HF exhibits a much higher boiling point than Ne though they have similar molecular masses.

b) The boiling points of the halogen halides are much higher than that of the noble gases because the halogen halides have much higher molecular masses and stronger intermolecular forces between molecules compared to the noble gases.

Also, the change in boiling point of the hydrogen halides is much more marked(decreases rapidly)  due to decrease in the magnitude of hydrogen bonding from HF to HI. The boiling point of the noble gases increases rapidly down the group as the molecular mass of the gases increases.

Write balanced equations that describe the following reactions. (Use the lowest possible coefficients. Use the pull-down boxes t
Gnesinka [82]

Answer :  The balanced chemical reaction will be:

HBrO_4(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_3O^+(aq)+BrO_4^-(aq)

Explanation:

Balanced chemical reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the number of atoms of individual elements present on reactant side must be equal to the product side.

As we know that perbromic acid is considered a strong acid that means it will completely dissociate in water.

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

HBrO_4(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_3O^+(aq)+BrO_4^-(aq)
