Answer:

$B. ^{12}C, ^{14} C$

Explanation:

Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have the same number of protons (needless to say since they are from the same element) but they have different numbers of neutrons and hence masses.

$B. ^{12}C, ^{14} C$

These are two different atoms from the same element, carbon with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons hence the different relative atomic masses

Isotopes have same atomic number but different atomic mass number.
Hence option B is correct.

Hope this helps you!

If a question cannot be tested and observed, it cannot be answered with science. (2 points) True or False?

boyakko [2]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

If a question cannot be tested and observed, it cannot simply be answered by science.

Science works with observable and testable ideas and not on metaphysics.

Science presents a methodical approach into investigating phenomenon and answering likely questions in a logical manner.
The body of facts and data gathered through observations and tests are used to ramify the conclusion of a scientific study.
Without such, it is impossible to do the work of science.

Wet snow is best for snow man building<br>

fredd [130]

Answer:

<h2>Hope my answer helps</h2>

Explanation:

<h2>Moist to wet snow is the ideal moisture content needed to build the best snowman. If the snow is too dry, it is comparable to loose powder and in turn, the snow won't stick together. On the other hand, if the snow has too much moisture and is slushy, it can't form into a solid.</h2>

How much water would be needed to completely dissolve 1.52 L of the gas at a pressure of 730 torr and a temperature of 21 ∘C?

Sophie [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.4 L.

Explanation:

The mentioned question can be solved by using the equation,

C = K × Pgas--------(i)

Here K is the Henry law constant whose value is 0.158 mol/L/atm, C is the concentration of the gas in liquid state, and Pgas is the partial pressure of the gas.

Now to find the volume of water, the formula to be used is,

PV = nRT-----------(ii)

Here P is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume, R is the universal gas constant whose value is 0.082 Latm/mol/K and T is the temperature.

PgasV = nRT

Pgas = nRT/Vgas

The value of Pgas is inserted in equation (i) we get,

C = K × nRT/Vgas

It is to be noted that C = n/V, here n is the no. of the moles and V is the volume of liquid.

n/Vliquid = K × nRT/Vgas

1/Vliquid = KRT/Vgas

Vliquid = Vgas/KRT--------------(iii)

Based on the given information, the volume of the gas is 1.52 L, the value of K is 0.158 mol/L/atm, the value of R is 0.082 Latm/mol/K and value of T is 21 degree C or 273 + 21 = 294 K.

Now putting the values in equation (iii) we get,

Vliquid = 1.52 L / 0.158 × 0.082 × 294

Vliquid = 1.52 / 3.809

Vliquid = 0.399 or 0.4 L

Hence, the volume of water required to dissolve 1.52 L of gas is 0.4 L.

Draw the Lewis structure for the compound with the formula COCl2COCl2. Use lines to show bonding electrons.

stira [4]

Answer : The Lewis-dot structure of $COCl_2$ is shown below.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, $COCl_2$

As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons, chlorine has '7' valence electron and oxygen has '6' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $COCl_2$ = 1(4) + 2(7) + 1(6) = 24

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 8 number of bonding electrons and 16 number of non-bonding electrons.

If a gas is moved from a large container to a small container but its temperature and number of moles remain the same, what woul

bazaltina [42]

To solve this we assume that the gas is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant temperature and number of moles of the gas the product of PV is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

P1V1 =P2V2

<span>The correct answer is the first option. Pressure would increase. This can be seen from the equation above where V2 is indirectly proportional to P2.</span>
