Which statement best explains how isotopes can have different masses and still be the same element?

Physics

Your list of choices is a very short list, and doesn't include any
correct explanation.

The mass of an atom is roughly the number of protons AND neutrons
in its nucleus, but the element only depends on how many protons are there. 

Different atoms of the same element may have different numbers of
neutrons, so their masses are different.  But they're the same element,
because they all have the same number of protons.

How many photons are absorbed during the dental x-ray?
MariettaO [177]
<span>E=hc/wav. len
E = (6.62 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8)/0.0275 x 10^-9
E = 7.22182 x 10^-15 J
To convert to eV divide by 1.6 x 10^-19
E = 7.22182 x 10^-15/1.6 x 10^-19 eV
E =45.36 x 10^3 eV
Th energy, E, of a single x-ray photon in eV is = 45.36keV.

Number of photons, n = total energy/ energy of photon
n = 3.85 x 10^-6/7.22182 x 10^-15
n = 5.33 x 10^8 photons </span>

What are the overall problems with hydrogen energy
OlgaM077 [116]

Expensive: Hydrogen gas actually takes a considerable measure of work to free if from different components. If it were basic and simple to separate, everybody would be utilizing it. It’s now being utilized to power some hybrid vehicles, yet right now it is not a reasonable type of fuel for everybody, mainly because it’s pricey and it’s difficult to get it from place to place. Until research and innovation goes far enough to make this a simpler and cheaper task, hydrogen will likely be something that only the rich can afford.Not Enough Hydrogen Fuel Stations: As you likely know, it’s very difficult to change “the way things are.” As difficult as hydrogen is to create and transport, it gets to be considerably pricier when you consider attempting to utilize it to supplant fuel. There is no current framework set up to hydrogen as the primary fuel for the normal driver. Service stations and vehicles themselves would all must be changed in order to use hydrogen, which can take a lot of time and money to do. It doesn’t seem cost efficient to change from the norm.Safety Concerns: Hydrogen in itself has a lot of power behind it. Though it is less dangerous than gasoline, it’s profoundly flammable and constantly in the news for the potential dangers connected with it. Unlike gas, hydrogen has no smell. Sensors must be used to detect a leak.
