<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is the mass number of the most common isotope of the element is 24.
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
An element having atomic number 12 is magnesium and atomic mass of the element is 24.305
The image corresponding will be 
The number '24.305' is the average atomic mass of magnesium element.
Average atomic mass is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.
Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:
Average atomic mass of magnesium = 24.305 amu
As, the average atomic mass of magnesium lies closer to the mass of Mg-24 isotope. This means that the relative abundance of this isotope is the highest of all the other isotopes.
The 'Mg-24' isotope is the most common isotope of the given element.
Hence, the correct answer is the mass number of the most common isotope of the element is 24.
The by-product of the chlorination of an alkane is <u>HCl</u>
Explanation:
- Chlorination is the process of adding chlorine to drinking water to disinfect it and kill germs. Different processes can be used to achieve safe levels of chlorine in drinking water.
- Chlorination of alkane gives a mixture of different products.
- When consider mechanism of alkanes chlorination, free radicals are formed during the reaction to keep the continuous reaction.
- Different alkyl chloride compounds, extended carbon chains compounds and HCl are formed as products in product mixture.
- Chlorination byproducts, their toxicodynamics and removal from drinking water.
- Halogenated trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs) are two major classes of disinfection byproducts (DBPs) commonly found in waters disinfected with chlorine
- Chlorine is available as compressed elemental gas, sodium hypochlorite solution (NaOCl) or solid calcium hypochlorite (Ca(OCl)2
I had this same question on one of are worksheets is D I can’t really explain it but the answer is D
Membranes are barriers and “gatekeepers”, they only let certain molecules pass through them.
they also transport nutrients to the cell
Sliding or rolling friction
