Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When we heat a fluid then the cooler material which is more denser in nature will sink at the bottom whereas the hot material which is less denser in nature will rise at the top. This flow of material induces currents and the process is known as convection.

For example, when a metal pot of water is heated then heat will be transferred from pot to the water represents convection process.

Whereas when two objects are touching each other and both of them have different temperature then heat will flow from warmer object to cooler object. This process is known as conduction.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement conduction cannot occur between two different phases of matter explains why the student's idea is incorrect.

The element carbon exists in several different forms. Pure carbon can be found in the form of diamonds, coal, and the graphite i
UNO [17]

Answer:

B) All carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.

Explanation:

The false statement from the given choices is that all carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.

There is a phenomenon called isotopy in chemistry.

Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to the differences in the number of neutrons in their various nuclei.

  • These atoms of elements are called isotopes.
  • Carbon atoms generally have proton number of 6 which is the same as the atomic number.
  • As with all atoms, the mass number or atomic mass equals the number of protons and neutrons.

For the isotopes of carbon, their number of neutrons differs.

 For example:

            <em>¹²₆C                           ¹³₆C                        ¹⁴₆C</em>

The number of neutrons differs in the above isotopes.

 Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number;

    ¹²₆C  , number of neutrons  = 12 - 6  = 6

      ¹³₆C, number of neutrons  = 13 - 6  = 7

       ¹⁴₆C, number of neutrons = 14 - 6  = 8

Therefore, based on the concept of isotopy, all carbon atoms do not have 6 neutrons.
