The symbol of an isotope is:
^A _Z X
A - the mass number
Z - the atomic number
X - the symbol of an element

The symbol of oxygen is O.

The atomic number is the same for all isotopes of one element. For oxygen it's 8, because every atom of oxygen has 8 protons in its nucleus.

The mass number is the number of nucleons (protons + neutrons) in the nucleus of an atom, and it's given in the name of an isotope. Oxygen-16 has the mass number 16, oxygen-17 has the mass number 17, oxygen-18 has the mass number 18.

Oxygen-16: ^{16} _8 O

Oxygen-17: ^{17} _8 O

Oxygen-18: ^{18} _8 O

Sodium carbonate (NaCO3) is sometimes used as a water-softening agent. Suppose that a worker prepares a 0.730 M solution of NaCO
sergey [27]

The molarity of a solution is the number of moles of a substance divided by the volume in liters prepared.

molarity=\frac{n}{V}, where n is number of moles and V is the volume in liters.

In order to calculate the mass of solute we need to convert the volume and molarity to moles

1.421 L solution \times\frac{0.0730 moles}{1 Lsolution}= 1.037 mol NaCO_3

Now that we have moles we use the relative formula mass of NaCO₃, We have 1 Na atom, 1 C atom and 3 O atoms, thus

M_r= (1\times 22.99) + (1\times 12.00) + (3\times 16.00)= 82.99g/mol

1.037 \times\frac{82.99g}{mol} = 86.1g

g A spontaneous process is one in which: A. releases a large amount of heat B. may happen (is possible) C. will rapidly approach
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

A. releases a large amount of heat

Explanation:

A reaction is said to be spontaneous if it can proceed on its own without the addition of external energy. A spontaneous reaction is not determined by the length of time, because some spontaneous reactions are completed after a long period of time. They are exothermic in nature. An example is the conversion of graphite to carbon which takes a long period of time to complete. Spontaneous reactions are known to increase entropy in a system. Entropy is the rate of disorder in a system.

In the combustion of fire, energy is released to the surroundings as there is a decrease in energy. This is an example of a spontaneous reaction because it is an exothermic reaction, which causes an increase in entropy and a decrease in energy.
