Can two atoms with the same mass number ever be isotopes of each other ?

1 answer:

3 0

NO, two atom with the same mass number can never be isotope of each other.
This is because for atoms to be considered as isotopes, they must have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons. There is no way two atoms will have the same mass number and their proton number will be the same, this means that two atoms with the same number of mass number can not be isotope of each other.

A balloon containing N2 has 1.70 moles and occupies 3.80L. What will the volume be if the number of moles is increased to 2.60mo

leonid [27]

Answer:

5.81L

Explanation:

N1 = 1.70 moles

V1 = 3.80L

V2 = ?

N2 = 2.60 moles

Mole - volume relationship,

N1 / V1 = N2 / V2

V2 = (N2 × V1) / N1

V2 = (2.60 × 3.80) / 1.70

V2 = 9.88 / 1.70

V2 = 5.81 L

The volume of the gas is 5.81L
