Another carbon isotope has six protons and seven neutrons in its nucleus. What do you think this carbon isotope is called?
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Carbon - 13

Explanation:

For most of the elements other than that of hydrogen, the isotopes are named for the mass number.

Example : Carbon atoms with 6 neutrons have mass number of 12 ( as 6\ protons +6\ neutrons=12 ), so they are known as carbon-12.

Given that:

Protons = 6

Neutrons = 7

Mass = 6 + 7 = 13

So the name is Carbon - 13 . The symbol is ^{13}_{6}C
