Isotope- variation of an element

Sixteen- atomic number of oxygen
Marianna [84]3 years ago

Answer:- Isotope for the first blank and sixteen for second blank.

Explanations:- The sum of protons and neutrons makes the mass number of the element. Since atomic mass is the average of isotopes of the element, it is not a whole number but the mass number is a whole number as it is the sum of number of protons and neutrons.

15.9994 is almost 16 means the mass number for the most common isotope of oxygen is 16.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

A polar molecule has both a partial positive and a partial negative. Since NaCl (sodium chloride) is made out of Na+ and Cl- ions, the positive and negative parts of the water will pull on these ions individually since positive attracts negative and negative attracts positive. This magnetic force causes the Na+ and the Cl- ions to be pulled apart.

Compare and contrast the ease at which molecules are able to move relative to each other in the three states of matter
ANTONII [103]
The arrangement of molecules within the 3 phases of matter are shown in the picture. 

For the solid, the molecules are packed closely together. They don't have much space to move, so they just practically vibrate. For the liquid, the molecules are relatively farther from each other. The liquid molecules can flow freely but not as much as the gases. In the gases, the molecules are very far from each other. They are very sensitive to slight changes of pressure, volume and temperature.

Explain what a chemical reaction is and moles
Delvig [45]

Answer:

A process during which chemical bonds between atoms are broken and new ones are formed, producing one or more substances.

Moles are the amount of substance that contains as many particles.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction is when a chemical change occurs for example when a nail comes into contact with air and is then exposed to air it begins to rust. It forms a red-brown substance which changes the chemical composition of the original compound.

Examples of chemical reactions:

Combustion

Oxidation (rusting)

Cooking an egg

Photosynthesis

Digestion

Fireworks

Paper Burnin

The mole is the amount of substance that contains as many particles (molecules, ions or atoms) as there are in 12g of carbon.

1 mol is the amount of substance that contains the same number of particles as there are atoms in 12.0 g of carbon-12 and that number is referred to as Avogardo's constant (6.022 x 10^{23}).
