5. B air is a mixture of many elements, but is not a chemically fused.
6. B Beef stew, composition varies throughout.
7. A. They can be chemically separated into their component elements, but they are all homogenous, and as such, have constant composition, which differs from the components properties, as the components must undergo a chemical change to become compounds.
Answer:
I hate to not answer and have you repost this if you could repost it with the choices by clicking the arrow I can figure it out a lot faster and I'll copy and paste to show you that it's right
Explanation:
I'm good with history biology sum math so if you want to do what I asked and reposted I can give you the answers and I will show that they are correct I won't just guess like some people do just to get points cuz I don't care about points I just get on here to help people
Answer:
B) All carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.
Explanation:
The false statement from the given choices is that all carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.
There is a phenomenon called isotopy in chemistry.
Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to the differences in the number of neutrons in their various nuclei.
- These atoms of elements are called isotopes.
- Carbon atoms generally have proton number of 6 which is the same as the atomic number.
- As with all atoms, the mass number or atomic mass equals the number of protons and neutrons.
For the isotopes of carbon, their number of neutrons differs.
For example:
<em>¹²₆C ¹³₆C ¹⁴₆C</em>
The number of neutrons differs in the above isotopes.
Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number;
¹²₆C , number of neutrons = 12 - 6 = 6
¹³₆C, number of neutrons = 13 - 6 = 7
¹⁴₆C, number of neutrons = 14 - 6 = 8
Therefore, based on the concept of isotopy, all carbon atoms do not have 6 neutrons.
