Answer: The net change in the atoms is the conversion of a neutron to a proton, turning Carbon (6 protons) into Nitrogen (7 protons).
Explanation:
Carbon-14, generated from the atmosphere, has 6 protons and 8 neutrons. That's where the 14 comes from, called the mass number, is the sum of protons and neutrons (6+8=14).
Carbon-14 is radioactive and decays by beta decay. That means one of its neutrons spontaneously turns into a proton, an electron, and a neutrino, according to:
After that, the atom has 7 protons and 7 neutrons, maintaining its mass number but changing its atomic number from 6 to 7, turning into Nitrogen.
Answer:
The boiling point of HF is <u><em>higher than</em></u> the boiling point of H2, and it is <u><em>higher than</em></u> the boiling point of F2.
Explanation:
In HF, inter- molecule forces will be present between the hydrogen and fluorine atoms. There will be hydrogen bonding present among the hydrogen and fluorine atoms. Hydrogen bonds are strong bonds and hence the boiling point for HF would be high as much energy will be required to break these bonds.
H2 and F2 will only have intra-molecular attractions and there will be no hydrogen bonds present in them. As a result, their boiling point will be lower.
In order to determine, Order of reaction, we have to add all the exponents written in the Chemical form, on the Reactant species.
Hope this helps!

See Explanation
Explanation:
Hence the mass defect is;
[235.04393 + 1.00867] - [ 136.92532 + 96.91095 + 2(1.00867)]
= 236.0526 - 235.85361
= 0.19899 amu
Since 1 amu = 1.66 * 10^-27 Kg
0.19899 amu = 0.19899 * 1.66 * 10^-27 = 3.3 * 10^-28 Kg
Binding energy = Δmc^2
Binding energy = 3.3 * 10^-28 Kg * (3 * 10^8)^2 = 2.97 * 10^-11 J
ii) 
Hence the mass defect is;
[10.01294 + 1.00867] - [7.01600 + 4.00260]
= 11.02161 - 11.0186
= 0.00301 amu
Since 1 amu = 1.66 * 10^-27 Kg
0.00301 amu = 0.00301 * 1.66 * 10^-27 = 4.997 * 10^-30 Kg
Binding energy = Δmc^2
Binding energy = 4.997 * 10^-30 Kg * (3 * 10^8)^2 = 4.5 * 10^-13 J
Answer:
0° Celsius
Explanation:
The thermometer shows 0° Celsius which corresponds to 32° F.
