Answer: The net change in the atoms is the conversion of a neutron to a proton, turning Carbon (6 protons) into Nitrogen (7 protons).
Explanation:
Carbon-14, generated from the atmosphere, has 6 protons and 8 neutrons. That's where the 14 comes from, called the mass number, is the sum of protons and neutrons (6+8=14).
Carbon-14 is radioactive and decays by beta decay. That means one of its neutrons spontaneously turns into a proton, an electron, and a neutrino, according to:
After that, the atom has 7 protons and 7 neutrons, maintaining its mass number but changing its atomic number from 6 to 7, turning into Nitrogen.
Comets are usually formed of ice and other suave debris, while asteroids typically contain metals.

Answer:
Fe(s) + Cu^2+(aq) ---> Fe^2+(aq) + Cu(s)
Explanation:
The ionic equation shows the actual reaction that took place. It excludes the spectator ions. Spectator ions are ions that do not really participate in the reaction even though they are present in the system.
For the reaction between iron and copper II nitrate, the molecular reaction equation is;
Fe(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq)----> Fe(NO3)2(aq) +Cu(s)
Ionically;
Fe(s) + Cu^2+(aq) ---> Fe^2+(aq) + Cu(s)
The answer is (4) solid to gas. The entropy is the measurement of disorder. The entropy of CO2 under different status will increase from solid to liquid to gas. So the answer is (4).
