Answer:

2 more neutrons

Explanation:

To obtain the answer to the question, let us calculate the number of neutrons in carbon–14 and standard carbon (i.e carbon–12). This can be obtained as follow:

For carbon–14:

Mass number = 14

Proton number = 6

Neutron number =?

Mass number = Proton + Neutron

14 = 6 + Neutron

Collect like terms

14 – 6 = Neutron

8 = Neutron

Neutron number = 8

For carbon–12:

Mass number = 12

Proton number = 6

Neutron number =?

Mass number = Proton + Neutron

12 = 6 + Neutron

Collect like terms

12 – 6 = Neutron

6 = Neutron

Neutron number = 6

SUMMARY:

Neutron number of carbon–14 = 8

Neutron number of carbon–12 = 6

Finally, we shall determine the difference in the neutron number. This can be obtained as follow:

Neutron number of carbon–14 = 8

Neutron number of carbon–12 = 6

Difference =?

Difference = (Neutron number of carbon–14) – (Neutron number of carbon–12)

Difference = 8 – 6

Difference = 2

Therefore, carbon–14 has 2 more neutrons than standard carbon (i.e carbon–12)

ANSWER

Mass: The resistance of an object to acceleration, size-dependent

Volume: The amount of space an object occupies

Boiling point: The temperature at which a liquid boils and turns to vapor.

Melting point: The temperature at which a solid melts and turns to liquid

Density: Size-independent

Solubility: The ability of a substance (solvent) to dissolve when placed in a liquid (solute)

Magnetism: Size-dependent

EXPLANATION:

Mass: the more mass something has, the harder it is to accelerate. This is somewhat intuitive, but is also demonstrated in newton's third law. It's size-dependent because for an object of a given density, the size (volume) will change the mass.

Volume: big objects take up more space. If you put an apple in bucket filled to the brim with water, a little water will splash out, because the apple is now occupying the space that the water used to, but if you put in a watermelon, a lot of water will splash out, because the watermelon is taking up even more space.

Boiling point: when a liquid gets too hot, it will change to gas (example: water to steam)

Melting point: when a liquid gets too cold, it will change to a solid (example: water to ice)

Density: how much mass there is in a given volume. A sphere made of lead will have more mass than a sphere made of wood, even if they are the same size. Size-independent because a big lead sphere has the same density as a small lead sphere, they just have different masses.

Solubility: some substances dissolve in certain solvents, other's don't.

Magnetism: size-dependent because a bigger magnet is stronger than a smaller one if they are identical in every other way. More space means more domains means a stronger magnet.
