Answer:
B) All carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.
Explanation:
The false statement from the given choices is that all carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.
There is a phenomenon called isotopy in chemistry.
Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to the differences in the number of neutrons in their various nuclei.
- These atoms of elements are called isotopes.
- Carbon atoms generally have proton number of 6 which is the same as the atomic number.
- As with all atoms, the mass number or atomic mass equals the number of protons and neutrons.
For the isotopes of carbon, their number of neutrons differs.
For example:
<em>¹²₆C ¹³₆C ¹⁴₆C</em>
The number of neutrons differs in the above isotopes.
Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number;
¹²₆C , number of neutrons = 12 - 6 = 6
¹³₆C, number of neutrons = 13 - 6 = 7
¹⁴₆C, number of neutrons = 14 - 6 = 8
Therefore, based on the concept of isotopy, all carbon atoms do not have 6 neutrons.
Answer:
D, E and F
Explanation:
About tetrachloro cobalt complexes, the following facts have been observed
- Color of the tetrachloro cobalt complexes is blue.
- They do not decompose on heating that means synthesis of tetra chloro is endothermic.
About hexa aqua cobalt complexes, the following facts have been observed
- Color of the hexa aqua cobalt complexes is pink color.
- They decompose on heating and remain stable on cooling that means process of synthesis of hexa aqua cobalt complexes is exothermic.
Based on above, the correct statements are:
The correct is chloro cobalt complex is blue and aqua cobalt
complex is pink.
The chloro complex is favored by heating.
If the chloro complex is a product, then the reaction must be endothermic.
The correct options are D, E and F.
Answer: 
Explanation:
Electron gain enthalpy is defined as energy released on addition of electron to an isolated gaseous atom.
The amount of energy released will be maximum when the tendency to attract electrons is maximum. As flourine has atomic number of 9 and has electronic configuration of 2,7. It can readily gain 1 electron to attain stable noble gas configuration and hence liberates maximum energy.
