What is an isotope? How does one isotope differ from another isotope

Chemistry

Isotopes are different versions of a specific element.

Every atom/element is defined by its protons. So if it has 1 proton it's hydrogen no matter what, if it has 2 protons it's helium no matter what and so on. If you know the number of protons, you know the element.

You can change the number of neutrons in the nucleus and you'll get isotopes. Atoms that have different numbers of neutrons are isotopes of each other. It's important to understand that the element is the same but one is going to be a little bit heavier or lighter than another.

An isotope is an atom with a unique number of neutrons. Isotopes can differ from each other because of their number of neutrons.

What is the PH of a solution whose [H+] is 0.0007
cupoosta [38]
To determine the pH of the solution. All you would have to do is use the equation:

pH = -log(H3O^+)
pH = - log(0.0007)
pH = 3.15.

Note that H+ and H3O+ are the same, it is more accurate to say H3O+ because of how the H2O molecules become after receiving the additional proton.

Reduce the following equation to a net ionic equation: 2Na+ + SO4^2- + Ba^2+ + 2Cl^- ---&gt; 2Na^+ + 2Cl^- + BaSOv4
Eduardwww [97]

net ionic equation

B) SO₄²⁻ (aq) + Ba²⁺ (aq) → BaSO₄ (s)

Explanation:

We have the following chemical equation:

2 Na⁺ (aq) + SO₄²⁻ (aq) + Ba²⁺ (aq) + 2 Cl⁻ (aq) → 2 Na⁺ (aq) +  2 Cl⁻ (aq) + BaSO₄ (s)

To get the net ionic equation we remove the spectator ions and we get:

SO₄²⁻ (aq) + Ba²⁺ (aq) → BaSO₄ (s)

were:

(aq) - aqueous

(s) - solid
