State, in terms of subatomic particles, how an atom of C-13 is different from an atom of C-12

1 answer:

8 0

C-12 and C-13 are isotopes of the element carbon. Since they are both of the same element, they have the same number of protons. The number that follows the C indicates the number of neutrons. Isotopes are variations of the element with different number of neutrons. C-12 shows that that variation of carbon has 6 protons and 6 neutrons for a total mass of 12. C-13 shows that it has 6 protons but 7 neutrons for a total mass of 13

The molecular ion is not visible in the mass spectrum of 2-chloro-2- methylpropane. At what m/z value would the molecular ion be

pochemuha

Answer: hello the complete question is attached below

Visibility of molecular ion = m/z value of 77

Explanation:

For The molecular ion to be visible, it has to be at an m/z value of 77 and this is because molecular ions will have an m/z ratio = molecular mass of given molecule in most cases but not always in all cases.

And the visibility is possible after the removal of CH₃ ion.

ii) Evidence in the mass spectrum that suggests peak at m/z = 77

Write 1 paragraph. Why is earth considered a closed system ?

Paul [167]

Answer:

Explanation:

Earth is considered a closed system because only energy, not matter, is exchanged. A closed system like Earth can be easily represented by a sealed jar. When the lid is sealed, matter like air or water can neither enter nor exit the jar. If you placed that same jar in a 100-degree oven, the air inside the jar would eventually increase in temperature to 100 degrees, representing an exchange of energy known as heat.
