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

igomit [66]

Answer: The red blood cell will shrink due to water loss

Explanation:

Because 1% NaCl solution is slightly more concentrated than its isotonic 0.9% form, the red blood cell will lose its cell containing fluids such as water to the MORE concentrated environment.

This water loss after a prolonged period will result in shrinking of the red blood cell.

Describe the charges of the particles in the atom and how charge is distributed within an atom.
trapecia [35]
There are MANY subatomic particles in an atom.
But the three most important ones are
The electron which has a negative charge.
The proton having a positive charge.
And the neutron which is neutral or which has no charge at all.
The protons and neutrons club together and form the inner, heavy part of the atom which is positively charges because of the protons known as the nucleus.
And electrons remain farther away in all reality and revolve around the inner positive nucleus.
Trying its best to make the whole atom neutral!
