Define atomic numberand mass number. Which can vary without changing the identity of the element?

Chemistry

Volgvan3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

Atomic number is defined as the number of an element which represents total number of protons.

When an atom is neutral then it means it contains same number of protons and electrons.

On the other hand, atomic mass is defined as the sum of total number of protons and neutrons present in an atom.

Protons of every element remains fixed because it shows the identity of each element but if we change the number of neutrons then also identity of the atom will remain fixed. This is because changing the number of neutrons will not show any change in number of protons.

For example, ^{2}_{1}H and ^{3}_{1}H are isotopes of hydrogen and they have same number of protons but different number of neutrons.

Thus, we can conclude that number of neutrons can vary without changing the identity of the element.

If an atom with a mass number of 27 has 14 neutrons,it is an isotope of which element​
kkurt [141]

Answer:

the number of neutrons in above isotope = A - Z = 27 - 13 = 14. Note: The molar mass of aluminium, which is average of atomic masses of all isotopes = 26.981538 g/mol, since 13Al27 is the major isotope.

Please help! If a forensic chemist discovers evidence through examination which would prove a person guilty of a crime, why then
Bogdan [553]

Explanation: You cannot be convicted of a crime without evidence. You cannot be convicted of a state crime. You cannot be convicted of a federal crime. If there is no evidence against you, under the law, it simply is not possible for the prosecutor's office to obtain a conviction at trial. So, when you do have evidence it is really impossible to not get convicted unless the judge truly believes your side of the story and declares you not guilty.

I hope this helped :) If not i'm sorry!
