How many protrons are in 12 carbon isotopes​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Snezhnost [94]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The different forms of an element based on the number of neutrons in the nucleus are called "isotopes." Carbon-12 is only one isotope of the element carbon, with 6 protons and 6 neutrons. There are also carbon-13, with 6 protons and 7 neutrons, and carbon-14, with 6 protons and 8 neutrons.

Are two atoms of the same element identical??​
Neko [114]
No. Although two such atoms are essentially chemically identical (they will chemically react in the same way), they are not completely identical.

An unknown solution has a pH of 7.2. Which of these chemicals is likely to cause the greatest decrease in the pH of the solution
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

HNO₃.

Explanation:

  • It is known that acids decrease the pH of the solution, while bases increase  the pH of the solution.

So, HF and HNO₃ decrease the pH of the solution as they produce H⁺ in the solution.

While, KOH and NH₃ increase the pH of the solution as they produce OH⁻ in the solution.

HNO₃ will decrease the pH of the solution greater than HF.

  • Because HNO₃ is strong acid that decomposes completely to produce H⁺ more than the same concentration of HF that is a weak acid which does not decomposed completely to produce H⁺.

What causes attraction and repulsion between atoms?​
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Repulsive forces exist only when atoms are very close to each other. (3/14) "They [the atoms] will approach until both nuclei will simply shove each other because both of them are positive." The balance between the attraction and repulsion forces determines how close the atoms can get. The relationships between the magnitude and direction of repulsive and attractive forces. A stable state of a bond is when attractive forces balance repulsion forces. “A stable state between two atoms is when they attract each other with a force that equals the force that they repel each other.”

Which transition metals usually form only one monatomic cation? select all that apply.
lyudmila [28]

Zn, Cd, and Ag are transition metals that usually form only one monoatomic cation.

A monatomic cation is a cation made of only one atom.

Cations are positively charged ions, in this example Ag⁺, Cd²⁺ and Zn²⁺.

These cations form only one type of ion, while iron and copper form more than one type of cations.

Iron and copper form cations with different charges (Fe²⁺, Fe³⁺, Cu⁺, Cu²⁺).

It depends on electron configuration which type would be formed.

Electron configuration of zinc atom: ₃₀Zn 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s²

Transition metals are elements in the d-block of the Periodic table.
