Why do different isotopes of an element generally have the same physical and chemical properties?

Chemistry
1 answer:
tresset_1 [31]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct answer is because they have same number of protons but different number of neutrons.

Explanation:

Isotopes are atoms of the same element but differ only in the number of neutrons in the nucleus, i.e. they have same atomic number but different mass number.

Mass number is affected as they have different number of neutrons, thus effecting their physical properties.

The number of electrons and protons are same, i.e. their atomic number is same and thus their chemical properties are same as chemical properties are determined by the atom’s electronic configuration and that relates to number of protons.

8090 [49]

The correct answer is option C, 5.02 x 10²² carbon atoms

Atomic mass of C = 12 g/mol

According to Avogadro, 1 mole of C has 6.023 x 10²³C atoms

Now 1 mole of C is equal to 12 g

Therefore, 12 g of C = 6.023 x 10²³ C atoms

1 g of C = \frac{6.023 x 10^2^3}{12} C atoms = 5.02 x 10²² C atoms

vanillin is a flavoring agent in vanilla it has a mass percent composition of 61.15% c,5.3%H,31.55% o determine the empirical fo
Nutka1998 [239]

The empirical and molecular formulas will be  C_5H_5O_2 and  C_1_0H_1_0O_4 respectively.

<h3>Empirical and molecular formula</h3>

The compound contains C, H, and O.

C = 61.15/12 = 5.0958

H = 5.3/1 = 5.3

O = 31.55/16 = 1.9719

Divide by the smallest

C = 2.6

H = 2.7

O = 1

Thus, the empirical formula is C_5H_5O_2

Empirical formula mass = (12x5) + (1x5) + 16x2 = 97

n = 152.15/97 = 2

The molecular formula is C_1_0H_1_0O_4

How many grams of oxygen can be obtained from 250. grams of KCIO3?
guapka [62]

Answer:

Keep it simple. If all the oxygen contained in the 200 grams of potassium chlorate is produced in the decomposition, then all we have to do is find out how many grams of oxygen are there in the 200 grams. This we can do by calculating the ratio of oxygen mass to the whole. Using 39.1 for potassium, 35.45 for chlorine and 3 times 16, or 48 for the oxygen, we get a total of 122.55 grams per mole for potassium chlorate, of which 48 grams are oxygen. This ratio is 48/122.55. This ratio times the original 200 grams of the compound, gives us 78.34 grams of oxygen produced.

Which of the following statements best compares the pH value of H3PO4 and HCl?
wel

Answer:

Option B. Both have a pH less than 7, but H3PO4 has a lower pH than HCl

Explanation:

Those are acid, so the pH would be < 7.

H₃PO₄ is a weak acid with 3 dissociations

HCl is a strong acid.

pH depends on [H]⁺

H₃PO₄  →  3H⁺  +  PO₄⁻³

HCl →  H⁺  +  Cl⁻

If both acid, have the same concentration, [H⁺]H₃PO₄ > [H⁺]HCl, that's why the pH from the phosphoric will be lower.
