How are isotopes of the same chemical element alike? How are they different?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Stella [2.4K]3 years ago

<u>Answer:</u> The atomic mass of these species is different and atomic number remains same.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Isotopes are the chemical species of the same element having different number of neutrons.

  • Atomic number is equal to the number of protons or electrons present in that element.

Atomic Number = Number of electrons = Number of protons

  • Atomic mass is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons contained in an atom.

Atomic Mass = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

For isotopes, as the number of neutrons differ, the atomic mass also differs.

For Example: Carbon has 3 naturally occurring isotopes: _6^{12}\textrm{C},_6^{13}\textrm{C}\text{ and }_6^{14}\textrm{C}. The atomic number remains the same but atomic mass differs.

Hence, for isotopes, the atomic mass of these species is different and atomic number remains same.

Define what chemical and radiant energy is
juin [17]
Radiant energy is energy contained in electromagnetic waves. These include visible light, infrared, radio waves, ultraviolet and microwaves. ... Chemical energy is energy stored in chemical bonds between atoms.

Photosynthesis is the transformation of radiant energy to chemical energy. Plants take in water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight and turn them into glucose and oxygen. Called photosynthesis, one of the results of this process is that carbon dioxide is removed from the air.

pH of the buffer solution is 1.76.

Chemical dissociation of formic acid in the water:

HCOOH(aq) ⇄ HCOO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq)

The solution of formic acid and formate ions is a buffer.

[HCOO⁻] = 0.015 M; equilibrium concentration of formate ions

[HCOOH] + [HCOO⁻] = 1.45 M; sum of concentration of formic acid and formate

[HCOOH] = 1.45 M - 0.015 M

[HCOOH] = 1.435 M; equilibrium concentration of formic acid

pKa = -logKa

pKa = -log 1.8×10⁻⁴ M

pKa = 3.74

Henderson–Hasselbalch equation: pH = pKa + log(cs/ck)

pH = 3.74 + log (0.015 M/1.435 M)

pH = 3.74 - 1.98

pH = 1.76

Why do we use 51.0mL of NaOH but only 50.0mL of HCl?
bixtya [17]

Answer

Na OH reacts with H Cl and forms Na Cl and H₂O

NaOH + HCl   →   NaCl + H₂O                                              

Here we can see that  1 mole of NaOH reacting with 1 mole of HCl and forming 1 mole of NaCl and 1 mole of H₂O

when  NaOH and HCl are added together in equal amount then they will completely neutralize each other but NaOH is hygroscopic in nature which means it can absorb water from air so it will not be weighted accurately.

hence, for neutralization we will take extra NaOH.
