Answer: 8 neutrons, 6 protons and 6 electrons

Explanation:

Isotopes are elements which have same atomic number but different mass number.

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons that are present in an electrically neutral atom.

Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons = 6

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons = 14

Number of protons + Number of neutrons = 14

6 + Number of neutrons = 14

Number of neutrons = 8

Thus there are 8 neutrons, 6 protons and 6 electrons in carbon isotope.

Molecules of carbon dioxide are linear. What type of force exists between these molecules?
Ratling [72]

Answer:

D) Van der Waals

Explanation:

Given that the geometry is linear, one finds that the C = O bonds cancel out any polar effects due to the linear geometry ( O = C =  O )and gives the molecule a net dipole of zero. Interactions are therefore dependent upon dispersion forces that are classified as Van der Waal Forces or London Forces.

How to get the formulas for these compounds
Travka [436]
So what you’re going to do is basically the + and - in each top hand corner is the charge of compound, so for example Li has a charge of +1 while Br has a charge of -1 , to write the formula you need to get the charges to cancel out ( equal zero) so luckily this was easy because -1 +1 =0 ! So it would be LiBr. Though for another example Al has a charge of 3+ while br has a charge of -1 and these do not equal zero, so as a result you have to add more br making the Formula AlBr3! Hope this helps!
