Explanation:
Atomic Number = Number of protons
Mass Number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons
Isotopes are simply atoms of an element with the same number of protons and different number of neutrons.
First Isotope -- 238U
Number of neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number
Number of neutrons = 238 - 92 = 146
Second Isotope -- 235U
Number of neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number
Number of neutrons = 235 - 92 = 143

Explanation:
The third law of thermodynamics states that "the entropy of a perfect crystal of a pure substance approaches zero as the temperature approaches zero" (Wikipedia).
One example of the third law of thermodynamics has to do with steam. Steam is gaseous water. Since it is a gas, its molecules are free to move around therefore its entropy is high. When the temperature of the steam is decreased below 100 degrees, the molecules of steam loose energy and turn into liquid water and do not move as freely as they did in the gaseous state. If the temperature is further decreased to yield ice at zero degrees, the molecules of water are "frozen" in their positions and the entropy of the system decreases to zero.
Also, the ions in ionic crystal solids move around when the substance is in solution or in molten state hence the substance conducts electricity. When the ionic substance is in solid state, the ions do not move about and the entropy of the solid system tends towards zero.
