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!

What is a potential problem with respect to the timing for when a cytotoxic?

Maru [420]

Cytotoxic is a characteristic of a medicine that bears the ability to cure cancer. The timing of the medication is very important because if not used properly, the substance or the drug may damage also even the healthy cells. Thus, it is just right to caution everyone, especially those who are involved, with the right usage of the drug.

Butane (C4 H10(g), Hf = –125.6 kJ/mol) reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide (CO2 , Hf = –393.5 kJ/mol ) and water (H2 O,

WITCHER [35]

Answer: Enthalpy of combustion (per mole) of $C_4H_{10} (g)$ is -2657.5 kJ

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of butane follows:

$2C_4H_{10}(g)+4O_2(g)\rightarrow 8CO_2(g)+10H_2O(g)$

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

$\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(8\times \Delta H^o_f_{CO_2(g)})+(10\times \Delta H^o_f_{H_2O(g)})]-[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{C_4H_{10}(g)})+(4\times \Delta H^o_f_{O_2(g)})]$

We are given:

$\Delta H^o_f_{(C_4H_{10}(g))}=-125.6kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(H_2O(g))}=-241.82kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(O_2(g))}=0kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(CO_2(g))}=-393.5kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_{rxn}=?$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(8\times -393.5)+(10\times -241.82)]-[(2\times -125.6)+(4\times 0)]\\\\\Delta H^o_{rxn}=-5315kJ$

Enthalpy of combustion (per mole) of $C_4H_{10} (g)$ is -2657.5 kJ

Serena is mixing a material into a beaker filled with a liquid. She notices that the material seems to disappear into the liquid

kozerog [31]

Answer:

solubility

Explanation:

Solubility is the ability of a solid, liquid, or gaseous chemical substance (referred to as the solute) to dissolve in solvent (usually a liquid) and form a solution. The solubility of a substance fundamentally depends on the solvent used, as well as temperature and pressure.

State which of the following set of quantum number would be possible and which would be permissible for an electron in an atom.

raketka [301]

Answer:

The correct option is: e) n=4, l=3, $m_{l}$ = - 2 , $m_{s}$ = - 1/2

Explanation:

The four quantum numbers that describe the electrons in an atom are: The principal: n, azimuthal: l, magnetic: m, and spin: s.

For a given electron, the values of the quantum numbers should be in the given range- principal quantum number: n ≥ 1;

azimuthal quantum number: 0 ≤ l ≤ n − 1;

magnetic quantum number: −l ≤ $m_{l}$ ≤ +l;

spin quantum number: −s ≤ $m_{s}$ ≤ +s

Now, for n= 4,

The value of l: 0 to n − 1 = 0 to 3 = 0, 1, 2, 3

The value of $m_{l}$ for l= 3 : -3 to +3 = -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3

The value of $m_{s}$ : -1/2, +1/2

Therefore, the given set of quantum numbers: n=4, l=3, $m_{l}$ = - 2 , $m_{s}$ = - 1/2; are possible and permissible for an electron in an atom.

Why are large differences in temperature between the wet bulb and dry bulb thermometers are possible only at higher temperatures

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

At constant vapor pressure, the relative humidity decreases as the temperature increases, therefore, at higher temperature the relative humidity is low and water readily evaporates from the wet bulb thermometer that results in the cooling of the bulb such that at a given ambient temperature the very low relative humidity results in very large differences between the temperatures of the wet bulb thermometer and that of the dry bulb thermometer and the wet bulb is observed to be the colder thermometer of the two
