Which is true about the four atoms shown in figures A, B, C, and D? (Ill fan and medal!) A. A, B, and C are different elements, while D is an isotope of C. B. A, C, and D are different elements, while B is an isotope of D. C. A, B, and D are different elements, while C is an isotope of B. D. B, C, and D are different elements, while A is an isotope of C. https://static.k12.com/calms_media/media/939000_939500/939155/1/045694a7dcbbf6c72d19d6c5fbd03a3c622e86d8/MS2_PHY_05_02_109__isotopes.jpg

@Awolflover1 @RhondaSommer @just_one_last_goodbye any of you know?

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

sorry hun; ive got no clue

OpenStudy (annah.bee):

alright, thanks anyways

OpenStudy (annah.bee):

@mayankdevnani do you happen to know?

Awolflover1 (awolflover1):

Any Random Guess?

OpenStudy (mayankdevnani):

what is isotope?

OpenStudy (annah.bee):

i dont kno mayan and awolf, idk A maybe

OpenStudy (mayankdevnani):

isotope=same atomic number but different mass number

OpenStudy (annah.bee):

ok

OpenStudy (mayankdevnani):

so find mass number ! mass number=no.of nucleons=no of protons+no of neutrons

OpenStudy (annah.bee):

A is 6 B is 7 C is 7 and D is 8

OpenStudy (mayankdevnani):

or find atomic number=no of protons

OpenStudy (mayankdevnani):

if same atomic number,then those are isotopes

OpenStudy (annah.bee):

A an b are isotopes and C and D are

OpenStudy (annah.bee):

so it is A?

OpenStudy (annah.bee):

@mayankdevani is it A

OpenStudy (annah.bee):

what the heck did he block me

OpenStudy (annah.bee):

@Ella4184 help

OpenStudy (ella4184):

I would have to say C

OpenStudy (ella4184):

The number of protons is what determines the element. If two atoms have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons, they are isotopes

OpenStudy (annah.bee):

THANK YOU

OpenStudy (ella4184):

Anytime:)
