Answer:

Same number of protons but different number of neutrons

Explanation:

Isotopy is a phenomena in which atoms of the same element differs by the number of neutrons in their nucleus. While it is important to note that they have the same number of protons and hence the same atomic number, they have different mass numbers.

They have the same atomic numbers because an element can only have one atomic number. Hence, all atoms of that element are composed of the same number of protons but different neutron numbers.

Answer:

See the explanation below, please.

Explanation:

If two atoms are isotopes of the same element, the atoms must have the same atomic number (Z) and a different mass number (A).

Isotopes differ from each other by the number of neutrons. Example: Hydrogen (A = 1 and Z = 1) and Deuterium (A = 2 and Z = 1).

<h3>What is a decomposition reaction?</h3>

A decomposition reaction is one in which a substance is split up into smaller parts.

We have the reaction; 2 Cr(OH)3(aq) ------------> Cr2O3(s) + 3H2O(l)

From this reaction;

2 moles of Cr(OH)3 produced 3 moles of water

12 moles of Cr(OH)3 will produce;

12 moles * 3 moles / 2moles

= 18 moles of water

Hence, 12 moles of chromium (III) hydroxide produces 18 moles of water.

When an apple or banana is cut, a chemical reaction with air causes the flesh to turn brown. Placing the fruit in a cold place,

PIT_PIT [208]

Apples turn brown when exposed to air because it undergoes aerial oxidation. Due to this, when the inside of the apple is exposed to the air containing oxygen and water, it turns brown. When apple is uncut, skin of the apple protects it from this process.

If the peeled apple in kept in the refrigerator, the oxidation reaction is greatly slowed down. This is because, rate of chemical reaction decreases with temperature. Hence, in refrigerator it would take several days for it to turn brown.
