Explain the following:
Carbon-12 and carbon-14 both show similar chemical properties.
Advertisements
उत्तर
Carbon-12 and carbon-14 are isotopes of carbon. They have the same atomic number (6) and hence the same electronic configuration. Chemical properties are determined by the electronic configuration of an atom. So, carbon-12 and carbon-14 show similar chemical properties.
