I think they test ideas about chemical evolution by doing experiments. Hope this helps
Answer:
Option C. 1
Explanation:
Step 1:
Determination of the Neutron of both isotopes. This is illustrated below.
For isotope y xA:
Mass number = y
Atomic number = x
Neutron =..?
Atomic number = proton number = x
Mass number = Proton + Neutron
y = x + Neutron
Rearrange
Neutron = y – x
For isotope (y + 1) xA:
Mass number = y + 1
Atomic number = x
Neutron =.?
Atomic number = proton number = x
Mass number = Proton + Neutron
y + 1 = x + Neutron
Rearrange
Neutron = y + 1 – x
Step 2:
Determination of the difference between the neutron number of both isotopes. This is illustrated below:
For isotope y xA:
Neutron number = y – x
For isotope (y + 1) xA:
Neutron number = y + 1 – x
Difference in neutron number
=> (y + 1 – x) – (y – x)
=> y + 1 – x – y + x
Rearrange
=> y – y + 1 – x + x
=> 1
Therefore, the difference in the neutron number of both isotopes is 1
The correct answer is (D)
All the above are reasons the carbon , oxygen, and nitrogen cycles are vital to life on earth.
The explanation:
because :
1) Carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen are vital components of life on Earth.
2) The carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen cycles allow vital elements to return to usable form by organisms.
3)The carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen cycles are an important interface between biotic and abiotic factors
4) They are all biogeochemical cycles.
5) They all involve an interaction between living and nonliving elements.
6)They are all part of the Earth system.
