Answer:
Neutrons.
Explanation:
Isotopes can be defined as the atom of an element that has the same number of protons but different number of neutrons. This ultimately implies that, the isotopes of an element have the same atomic number (number of protons) but different atomic mass (number of nucleons).
The isotope of an element is denoted by
Where; X is the symbol of the element.
A is the atomic mass or number of nucleons.
Z is the atomic number or number of protons.
<em>Therefore, the number of neutrons = A - Z</em>
<em>Isotopes of carbon differ with respect to the number of neutrons.</em>
<em>Basically, there are three (3) Isotopes of Carbon and these are;</em>
<em>1. Carbon-12: it has an atomic mass of 12 with 6 numbers of proton and neutron respectively. </em>
<em>2. Carbon-13: it has an atomic mass of 13 with 6 numbers of proton and 7 numbers of neutron. </em>
<em>3. Carbon-14: it has an atomic mass of 14 with 6 numbers of proton and 8 numbers of neutron. </em>
17, to be neutral it has to have equal number of protons and electrons
Answer:
-2.86x10³ kJ
Explanation:
The enthalpy of a reaction (ΔH) is defined as the heat produced or consumed by a reaction. In the reaction:
2 C₂H₆(g) + 7 O₂(g) → 4 CO₂(g) + 6 H₂O(g)
The ΔH is the heat envolved in the reaction per 2 moles of C₂H₆. 1.43x10³ kJ are involved when 1 mole reacts. Thus, when 2 moles react, involved heat is:
1.43x10³ kJ ₓ 2 = <em>2.86x10³ kJ</em>. As the reaction is a combustion reaction (Produce CO₂ and H₂O), the heat involved in the reaction is <em>PRODUCED, </em>that means ΔH is negative, <em>-2.86x10³ kJ</em>
Answer:
Option A. the hydroxyl group (-OH)
Explanation:
Ethanol, CH₃CH₂OH belongs to the class of organic compound called alkanol.
They have general formula as R–OH
Where
R => is an alkyl group
OH => is the hydroxyl group
The hydroxyl group (OH) is the functional group of the alkanol (alcohol)
Answer:
Sex refers to biological differences between males and females. For example, chromosomes (female XX, male XY), reproductive organs (ovaries, testes), hormones (oestrogen, testosterone). Gender refers to the cultural differences expected (by society / culture) of men and women according to their sex.
