What is the mass number of C12,C13 and C14

Chemistry
1 answer:
Elena L [17]3 years ago
3 0
Carbon-13 and Carbon-14 are isotopes of the element carbon. All carbon atoms have 6 protons in their nucleus and most have 6 neutrons. Since the mass number consists of # of protons + # of neutrons, Carbon 12 has an atomic mass of 12 ( = 6 protons + 6 neutrons). Carbon-13 atoms have one extra neutron, giving it a total of 7 neutrons. Carbon-14 atoms have two extra neutrons, giving them a total of 8 neutrons. Therefore the mass number of C-12= 12, C-13= 13 and C-14= 14.

State the periodic law, and explain its relation to electron configuration. (Use Na and K in your explanation.)
mina [271]

Answer:

Explanation:

The period law state that when elements are listed in order of their atomic numbers, the elements fall into recurring groups, so that there is a recurrence of similar properties at regular intervals.

Na and K in the periodic table fall into the same group, this is because they both have one electrons in their outermost shell.

Na 11 -1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1

K 19 - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1

They share similar chemical and physical properties. Na and K are very reactive metals, they can loose/donate their outermost electron to non metals in other to attain stable octet state.

The form ionic compound when they react with non metals.

Why a neutral atom has the same number of protons and electrons
Alex777 [14]

Explanation:

When an atom has an equal number of electrons and protons, it has an equal number of negative electric charges (the electrons) and positive electric charges (the protons). The total electric charge of the atom is therefore zero and the atom is said to be neutral. ... Chemically, we say that the atoms have formed bonds.

Particles that are smaller and have ____ generally dissolve faster.(1 point)
saw5 [17]

Answer:

For many solids dissolved in liquid water, the solubility increases with temperature. The increase in kinetic energy that comes with higher temperatures allows the solvent molecules to more effectively break apart the solute molecules that are held together by intermolecular attractions.
