Imagine a chemist is in the lab and trying to make some chemical reactions happen. In one reaction she reacts chemicals in an exothermic reaction and there is an increase in entropy. A second chemical reaction she is trying to run is endothermic and there is a decrease in entropy. Which of the two reactions is more likely to occur and why?
Answer:
TRUE.
Explanation:
Mass Number is the sum of protons and neutrons present in the nucleus of an atom. Isotopy is a phenonmenon that occurs when atoms of same elements have different mass number (Number of neutrons).
2H isotope has 1 proton and 1 neutron.
3H isotope has 1 proton and 2 neutrons.
This meeans 2H isotope has fewer neutrons when compared to the 3H isotope. The correct option is TRUE.
