Explanation:
Carbon has 3 isotopes. Carbon-12, Carbon-13, and Carbon-14
All of them have an atomic number of 6, which means all of them have 6 protons (if they had different numbers of protons, they'd be different elements).
Since they all have 6 protons, in their elemental forms, they all have 6 electrons, too.
Carbon-12:
Atomic number: 6
Mass number: 12
protons: 6
electrons: 6
neutrons: 6
Carbon-13:
Atomic number: 6
Mass number: 13
protons: 6
electrons: 6
neutrons: 7
Carbon-14:
Atomic number: 6
Mass number: 14
protons: 6
electrons: 6
neutrons: 8

2. Acetic acid is also known as ethanoic acid. It has a distinctive sour taste and pungent smell, and is generally considered a weak acid. in a concentrated form, acetic acid can be corrosive.

3/4 . Methylene chloride is an organochloride compound with the formula CH2Cl2. It is  a colorless, volatile liquid with a moderately sweet aroma is widely used as a solvent. It is normally stable, non-flammable and non-explosive when mixed with air at temperatures below 100 °C, but its vapor is flammable only when present in relatively high concentrations of about 14% to 22% in air. Research shows that it is very much possibly carcinogenic, and it has been linked to cancer of the lungs, liver, pancreas, breast cancer and salivary gland cancer in laboratory animals.

5. Laboratory and medical waste are not to be disposed in the trash with regular wastes, as they are potentially toxic. Special disposal methods and agencies exists to take away such wastes.

Which is not a reason why mass of an atom is expressed in atomic mass units rather than in grams?
Tasya [4]
What are your answer choices? Scientists express the weight in AMU’s so that they can easily think about the weight of the atom. If it is expressed in grams, they’re constantly dealing with a weight that’s around 10^-24 grams, which is hard to deal with.
