Which is more prevalent in the food we eat: carbon-12 or carbon-14?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sav [38]3 years ago
5 0
I think the more prevalent in the food we eat is Carbon-12 which is present in Most of the food we ingest. Both carbon-12 and carbon-14 are isotopes of carbon, they differ in the number of neutrons in each atom. Because of the different number of neutrons, carbon-12 and carbon-14 differ with respect to radioactivity. Carbon-12 is a stable isotope but carbon-14 undergoes radioactive decay.

Which argument best explains the charge of an atomic nucleus?
xeze [42]
The answer is "<span>An atomic nucleus is positively charged because it is composed of protons". An atomic nucleus actually contains nucleons which are made up of both protons and neutrons. Since neutrons are neutral or have no charge, the charge of an atomic nucleus mainly relies on the positive charge of the protons.</span>

If a certain gas occupies a volume of 19 L when the applied pressure is 9.5 atm, find the pressure when the gas occupies a volum
kakasveta [241]

Answer: 37.6 atm

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial volume of gas (V1) = 19L

Initial pressure of gas (P1) = 9.5 atm

Final volume of gas (V2) = 4.8L

Final pressure of gas (P2) = ?

Since pressure and volume are given while temperature remains the same, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

9.5 atm x 19L = P2 x 4.8L

180.5 atm•L = 4.8L•P2

Divide both sides by 4.8L

180.5 atm•L/4.8L = 4.8L•P2/4.8L

37.6 atm = P2

Thus, the final pressure is 37.6 atmospheres.
