Answer:La diferencia entre el carbono-12 y carbono-14 es el número de neutrones en cada átomo. El número dado después de que el nombre de átomo (carbono) indica el número de protones y neutrones en un átomo o ion. Los átomos de ambos isótopos de carbono contienen 6 protones. Los átomos de carbono-12 tienen 6 neutrones , mientras que los átomos de carbono-14 contienen 8 neutrones.

Explanation:Un  átomo neutro tendría el mismo número de protones y electrones, por lo que un átomo neutro de carbono-12 o carbono-14 tendría 6 electrones.

A pesar de que los neutrones no llevan una carga eléctrica, que tienen una masa comparable a la de los protones, por lo que los diferentes isótopos tienen diferente peso atómico. Carbon-12 es más ligero que el carbono-14.
