Explanation:

option b is correct because

hydrogen is smallest atom

isotopes of elements have different atomic mass

atom mass have nothing to do with elemental identity

Two atoms that are isotopes of one another must have the same number of what? Electrons, All Particles, Protons, or Neutrons
emmainna [20.7K]

atoms are made of 3 types of sub atomic particles; neutrons, protons and electrons

atomic number is the number of protons which is characteristic for the element. Atoms of the same element have the same number of protons.

mass number is the sum of the neutrons and protons.

Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different mass numbers. since they are the same element number of protons are the same but number of neutrons vary.

therefore 2 isotopes are of the same element so they have the same number of protons.

How many grams of KBr are required to make 350. mL of a 0.115 M KBr solution?
Vsevolod [243]
0.115 M means that 0.115 moles of KBr are contained in a volume of 1000 ml, therefore a volume of 350 ml will have (0.115 × 0.35) = 04025 moles
From the formula of molarity moles = molarity × volume in liters
1 mole of KBr is equivalent to 119 g
Therefore, the mass = 0.04025 ×  119  g = 4.79 g

Which pair has identical electron configurations?
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Identical electron configurations : K⁺ and Cl⁻

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

In an atom, there are levels of energy in the shell and sub-shell  

This energy level is expressed in the form of electron configurations.  

Charging electrons in the sub-shell uses the following sequence:  

<em>1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶, 5s², 4d¹⁰, 5p⁶, 6s², etc.  </em>

  • S²⁻ and CI

S²⁻ : [Ne] 3s²3p⁶

Cl : [Ne] 3s²3p⁵

  • K⁺ and CI⁻

K⁺ : 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶

Cl⁻ : 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²3p⁶

  • S and Ar

S :[Ne] 3s²3p⁴

Ar : [Ne] 3s²3p⁶

  • Cl⁻ and K

Cl⁻ : 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²3p⁶

K : 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶4s¹
