Vlad [161]

Answer:

Isotopes are variations of the same atom. They have the same number of protons but have a different number of neutrons. Isotopes of the same element are not identical to each other because they have varying mass numbers. Some isotopes are radioactive because their nucleus is unstable and some isotopes are not radioactive.

A 0.82 kg piece of wood floats in water but is found to sink in alcohol (sg=0.79), in which it has an apparent mass of 0.059 kg
schepotkina [342]
Upthrust = loss in weight = 0.82 - 0.059 = 0.761 Kg
upthrust = weight of the displaced fluid = 0.79*Vg where Vg is the volume of the piece of wood

Therefore:
0.761 = 0.79 Vg
Vg = 0.96329 

Density of wood (sg of wood) = mass / volume
density of wood = 0.82 / 0.96329 = 0.85
