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.

How many moles of water are produced from 32 grams of methane?
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

4 moles

Explanation:

n_{CH4} = \frac{32}{16} = 2 (moles)

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O

  1     :    2    :     1    :      2

  2                                         (moles)

⇒ n_{H2O} = 2 × 2 ÷ 1 = 4 (moles)

Ethyl alcohol is prepared industrially by the reaction of ethylene, C2H4, with water. What is the percent yield of the reaction
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

% yield = 62.21 %

Explanation:

  • C2H4(g) + H2O(l) → C2H6O(l)

∴ mass C2H4(g) = 4.6 g

∴ mass C2H6O(l) = 4.7 g

  • % yield = ((real yield)/(theoretical yield))×100

theretical yield:

∴ molar mass C2H4(g) = 28.05 g/mol

⇒ mol C2H4(g) = (4.6 g)*(mol/28.05 g) = 0.164 mol

⇒ mol C2H6O(l) = (0.164 mol C2H4)*(mol C2H6O(l)/molC2H4(g))

⇒ mol C2H6O(l) = 0.164 mol

∴ molar mass C2H6O(l) = 46.07 g/mol

⇒ mass C2H6O(l) = (0.164 mol)*(46.07 g/mol) = 7.55 g

⇒ theoretical yield = 7.55 g

⇒ % yield = (4.7 g)/(7.55 g))*100

⇒ % yield = 62.21 %
