Chemistry

A chemical separation is a separation method that involves change in the chemical composition of one of the solutions that are to be separated in order to a new physical properties of one part reached leaving the rest alone.


For example, When we add a chemical to the solution that will precipitate only one part of the solution leaving the rest.


A physical separation is a separation in which solutions are separated on the basis of their physical properties.


For example, If we use physical separation method in separating two oils with different specific volumes then these two oils are separated on the basis of their settling.

The element lanthanum has two stable isotopes, lanthanum-138 with an atomic mass of 137.9 AMU and lanthanum-139 with an atomic m
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

A. there is an isotope of lanthanum with an atomic mass of 138.9

Explanation:

By knowing the different atomic masses of both Lanthanum atoms, we can not tell anything about their occurence in nature. Therefore, all the last three options are incorrect. Because, the atomic mass does not tell anything about the availability or natural abundance of an element.

Now, the isotopes of an element are those elements, which have same number of electrons and protons as the original element, but different number of neutrons. Therefore, they have same atomic number but, different atomic weight or atomic masses.

Hence, by looking at an elements having same atomic number, but different atomic masses, we can identify them as isotopes.

Thus, the correct option is:

<u>A. there is an isotope of lanthanum with an atomic mass of 138.9.</u>
